At its AI Day presentation Tesla reveals the Tesla Bot, a humanoid robot run by the same AI system as its cars, the start of what becomes Optimus.

Tesla shows a bipedal Optimus prototype walking and waving on stage at AI Day 2022, a year after the Tesla Bot concept.

Elon Musk posts a video of Optimus Generation 2, which Tesla says walks 30% faster and weighs 10 kg less than its predecessor.

On 26 August 2024 Elon Musk posted a video of the inside of Cortex, Tesla's new AI training supercluster being built at Giga Texas in Austin. It is meant to train Full Self-Driving and the Optimus robot, and Tesla has said it will hold 50,000 Nvidia H100 GPUs plus 20,000 of its own hardware.

Optimus robots mingle with guests at Tesla's robotaxi event, with Musk saying the robot will cost $20,000 to $30,000 "long term."

Tesla's Q1 2026 shareholder update says Cortex 2, its second AI training cluster at Giga Texas, is online and running training workloads. The deck lists it at more than 130,000 H100-equivalent GPUs in early ramp, beside Cortex 1 at more than 100,000 in production.

Tesla shareholders meeting at Gigafactory Texas approved Elon Musk's 2025 CEO Performance Award with 75% support, while a proposal for Tesla to invest in xAI failed under Tesla's bylaws despite more votes for than against.

Optimus appears in public in the UK for the first time, handing out popcorn and posing for photos at the Tesla showroom in Westfield London.

Tesla beat fourth-quarter 2025 estimates with adjusted EPS of $0.50 on $24.9 billion revenue, but 2025 revenue fell 3% to $94.8 billion, its first annual decline; Musk said Model S and X production would end and their Fremont lines would build Optimus.

Tesla's first-quarter 2026 revenue rose 16% to $22.4 billion and adjusted EPS of $0.41 beat the $0.37 estimate, but the shares fell 3.6% the next day after Tesla said 2026 spending would run $5 billion above prior guidance.

Tesla ended 14 years of Model S and 11 of Model X with a live-streamed event at its Fremont factory, handing over the last 350 Signature Edition cars before the line makes way for Optimus robots.

Tesla's second-quarter 2026 revenue rose 26% to $28.2 billion, but adjusted EPS of $0.33 missed the $0.51 estimate as its operating margin fell to 1.4% and capital spending more than doubled; the shares fell 14.5% the next day.

Tesla's third-generation Optimus humanoid was due to be revealed mid-2026, with production at Fremont starting late July or August; the reveal has slipped repeatedly from an original Q1 2026 target.
