beffjezos · x · 2026-10-16
Quoting Tesla's official "Roadster in a rocket / rocket in a Roadster" riff, Elon Musk teased the next step: "From Grok in an Optimus bot / To Digital Optimus Bots in Grok." The wordplay is read as a preview of deep two-way integration between Tesla's Optimus humanoid robots and xAI's Grok — the robot running Grok on-board, and digital Optimus twins living inside Grok.
