Musk’s bets on Tesla: human-like robots and self-driving cars – Reuters
Jan 27 (Reuters) - Tesla's most important products this year and next will not be cars, CEO Elon Musk said on Wednesday, but software that drives them autonomously and a humanoid robot the company expects to help out in the factory.
