Furthermore, the combination of AI, Optimus, and Neuralink will further transform healthcare. People who have lost body parts will be able to be augmented with robotic parts and continue to live normally (and perhaps even better than others).
Elon Musk on the possibilities offered by the combination of Optimus and Neuralink:
“Long term is to say, if you take parts of the Optimus humanoid robot and you combine that with a Neuralink, let's say somebody has lost their arms or legs.
Well, we could actually attach an Optimus arm or Optimus legs and do a Neuralink implant so that the motor commands from your brain that would go to your biological arms, now go to your robot arms or robot legs.
And again, you'd have basically Cybernetics Superpowers.”
