Tesla robot incident raises concerns,Musk tweets response

Recently, foreign media reported a notable incident titled "Tesla Robot Attacks Engineer During Malfunction at Texas Factory, Resulting in Bloodshed and Prompting Emergency Shutdown."

According to reports, at the Tesla factory near Austin, Texas, a robot attacked an engineer. The engineer was working on writing software programs for two malfunctioning Tesla robots when, suddenly, one of the robots pinned him down. The robot used its metal claws to assault the engineer's back and arms, leaving a "trail of blood" on the factory floor.

Following the news coverage, Elon Musk took to Twitter to debunk the rumors. He retweeted a post mentioning the media's uncovering of an injury caused by a simple industrial KUKA robotic arm two years ago, implying that the current incident was being wrongly attributed to Optimus Prime, calling it "shameful."

Musk emphasized the widespread application of robots in industrial production. He pointed out that several years ago, Foxconn began extensive use of robots to replace assembly line operations, achieving significant cost savings and reducing issues related to human workers.

The authenticity of the robot injury incident is currently uncertain, and more information is awaited. The public has varied opinions on the matter, with some expressing concern while others remain calm. Meanwhile, the domain names related to the field of robotics have also piqued interest, including the sale of the domain name Robot.ai in the market.
