The AI Day 2022 is coming on Friday, Sept. 30, and Tesla CEO Elon Musk has a little teaser for those interested in attending the annual event.
The business tycoon recently tweeted a poster of a humanoid robot forming heart-shaped hands. The date of the event is included in the image, as well.
Tesla AI Humanoid Robot Makes Heart Shape
According to a report by The Independent on Wednesday, Sept. 30, Musk teased the highlight of the upcoming tech event this week. From the looks of it, it's clear that Tesla wants to showcase how the Optimus bot operates in front of the audience.
Speaking of which, the humanoid robot is expected to do any task, even the most dangerous activities for humans. The EV maker's shift in priority has surprised many fans since it's more inclined toward the production of electric vehicles.
Musk envisions that the new robot can also act as a domestic helper in taking care of the old elderly.
Last August, Musk said that humans would be doing physical work by choice in the future. At that time, he had already hinted that the Tesla Optimus bot would be the solution for this.
Although Musk is eager to maximize their resources to create the most interactive robots in the world, he's still aware of the implications of AI-powered bots to the economy.
"It has profound implications for the economy, given that the economy at its foundational level is labor," Musk said.
At this point, Musk wants to focus on improving its robot business to every potential customer. Someday, he sees to be a "bigger" business that could surpass the current EV business.
The Optimus robot appears to be promising to some people in the tech industry. However, Loup Ventures managing partner Gene Munster said that investors aren't excited about the upcoming Tesla AI bots.

What to Expect For the Upcoming AI Day 2022?
For online viewers who want to take part in the annual Tesla AI Day on Sept. 30, you can stream on YouTube once the event kicks off this week.
If you don't want to go to YT, you can simply head to its official website of Tesla for more details.
The company has not yet revealed any details about the exact livestream time. However, if Tesla will follow the same time for the 2021 event, it might start at 5:00 PM PT or 8:00 PM ET, per Forbes.
Regarding the potential products for the said event, Forbes reported that the main highlight of the show is Optimus. This is a no-brainer since it's the facade of the AI Day 2022-- the one that you have previously seen on a Twitter teaser.
Another thing to watch out for is the Dojo chip. Tesla aims to create its microchip, which will be useful for future Tesla machines and inventions.
For years, people have been waiting for Musk to unveil the robotaxis. Musk said that self-driving vehicles are currently in the early phase of development.
If Elon can fulfill his promise of bringing them on AI Day, maybe people won't have any second thoughts about Elon's promise regarding it.
The Full Self-Driving Beta is also expected to come out on Friday. The FSD update could be a game-changing feature for the robotaxis that will arrive at the end of 2022.
