On item 3 on the order of AI development, I think I heard that Tesla can/is/will build software simulations of the bot. It would be obvious to put in physics such you give the simulation increasingly difficult tasks, like stand still, walk, pick something up, etc., and let the neural network/simulation do trial and error at software speeds. Add in well defined environments, like a giga-factory, and give the bot more challenging and varied tasks, and the software can do learning via simulations at a potentially staggering rate.

Isn't this akin to how the Go player was developed? It may still be 3rd on the list, but I don't think it will be far behind.

We'll all find out when the Tesla bot makes it debut at the next Tesla AI day this September 30.

AI will drive down the costs and appeal of anything it creates at scale.
