On Monday, celebrity Kim Kardashian showcased a Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) Optimus bot to her vast audience of hundreds of millions on social media. In her post, she introduced the bot by saying, “[M}eet my new friend,” along with a video of her engaging with the humanoid robot. Kardashian instructed the bot to wave and form a heart sign with its hands, which it successfully did.

She then inquired about what they should do, to which the bot suggested going for a run and dancing in a Hawaiian style. In another video, Kardashian presented a Tesla Cybercab alongside a gold-colored Optimus bot, stating, “Optimus is here to take me for a ride in the Cybercab.”

During Tesla’s Robotaxi event in October, CEO Elon Musk mentioned that the bots could become Tesla’s most significant product. He described the bot’s capabilities, saying, “It can be a teacher, babysit your kids, walk your dog, mow your lawn, get the groceries, just be your friend, serve drinks—whatever you can think of, it will do.” Musk also indicated that the Optimus bot would be available for purchase in the future at a price lower than that of a car.
