     This is also a far cry from what Musk was saying last year. In January 2025, he said Tesla would build about 10,000 Optimus robots in 2025 and that “several thousand” would be doing useful work by year-end. A year later, he admitted that zero Optimus robots were doing useful work at Tesla. He also promised a V3 reveal by mid-2026. It’s late September, and that demo still hasn’t happened.

      Is it news that he lied? Feel like he's lied more than he's been honest.

         For deeply narcissistic people like Elon, and Trump is in the same category, words are neither true or false, they are only a means to an end. They say words to get people to do things they want. Words that do this well are good and true and words that don't are fake news.
