On March 11, 2026, Elon Musk revealed that Tesla, in collaboration with its subsidiary xAI, has initiated the 'Digital Optimus' (also referred to as 'Macrohard') project. This ambitious endeavor is centered around the creation of 'AI digital employees'—advanced artificial intelligence systems designed to autonomously operate computers and execute tasks. At the heart of this project lies the Grok large model, a cutting-edge AI framework independently developed by xAI, which operates on Tesla's proprietary AI4 chip. In theory, this setup is capable of replicating the entire operational workflow of a software company and holds the potential to establish a seamless software-hardware synergy with Tesla's humanoid robot, 'Optimus', in the foreseeable future.
