Tesla's Optimus- Future unfolded

I had read  long back  in 1964, a science fiction novel "Brave New World" by Aldus Huxley and even thought the idea was borrowed from ancient Hindu scriptures, which tried to build ideal society. 


Today, after reading advances in AI +  Robot technology and particularly Tesla's Optimus robots, my fear about the future of human race  seems to become a reality.

Tesla's Humanoid Robot Optimus


Robot Optimus learns new tasks by watching humans perform them. It watches tutorials to learn new skills. As compared to traditional robot programming, this brings Optimus robot a step closer to acting like a human. With the help of learning new actions, Optimus can turn out to be heavily useful in real-world operations.

With this method of learning, Optimus will not need complex programming for every single task. In place of that, he can just analyze human examples and then be told to do the task with a text or voice command.

Optimus now can-do jobs like stirring food, taking out trash, sorting items, and vacuuming but can be extended to do any job by seeing you tube videos like human beings.

Thus, they will replace humans. Not only in intellectual and body strength but even mind, ego and prejudice learned from watching YouTube channels.

Soon they will adopt religion of their choice, form their own like-minded groups, establish their own territories based on the birth context and start WAR or Trade war.

After all, they are created by human beings, so the ancestral qualities shall still prevail.

It will be new more sustainable race under any circumstances and any type of environment, whether earth or any other planet.

It is no more a fiction novel like "New Brave World", it is the future on horizon.

Can we change it to protect human race or  at least   humanity?
