Tesla Optimus AI (shared with the FSD stack)

Tesla has said since its 2021 AI Day that its humanoid is driven by the same AI approach it builds for its cars, and in mid-2025 the head of Autopilot software also took over the Optimus programme. Tesla has not published a separate named robot model. Elon Musk said in 2026 that the coming AI5 chip is meant to give Optimus enough on-board intelligence to work without a network link.
