Tesla shared a new video of its Optimus humanoid robot dancing yesterday, and it’s downright incredible.
The video is a follow-up to a teaser shared earlier this week by CEO Elon Musk. The new video is about 42 seconds long and shows Optimus able to do a variety of dances, such as ballet, the running man and even a variation of how to “Dougie”. Check it out below:
