Elon Musk has high hopes for Tesla's humanoid robot, believing it will significantly impact the company's valuation and be used in factories.
Former Optimus team lead, Chris Walti, disagrees, stating that humanoid robots like Tesla's are not suitable for repetitive factory work.
Walti left Tesla to found Mytra, a company focusing on simpler robots for warehouse tasks, as he believes humanoid robots pose engineering challenges.
Despite concerns, more humanoid robots are being tested and deployed in industries like logistics and manufacturing, showing a potential shift in the workforce.
