One of the most entertaining moments of the video was when Kim challenged the robot to a game of rock-paper-scissors. As Kim made the first move, Optimus quickly followed suit. The playful challenge took a humorous turn when the robot, after losing the game, mimicked a human-like reaction by raising its arms, a gesture typically associated with frustration. Kim, amused by the response, jokingly told the robot, “Oh! You’re a little slow. I beat you.”

In addition to Optimus, Kim also gave her followers a glimpse of another cutting-edge Tesla creation – the autonomous Tesla Cybercab. The vehicle, which reportedly operates without a steering wheel or pedals, marks a significant leap in autonomous driving technology. Kim’s video ended with a peek into the futuristic interior of the Cybercab, but she did not confirm whether she plans to purchase the vehicle.

Kim’s playful interaction with Optimus and the futuristic Cybercab highlights her growing interest in innovative technologies and her ability to share exciting developments with her massive online audience, keeping them engaged and entertained.
