Elon Musk recently unveiled his new robot prototype -- the much-hyped anthropomorphic bot named Optimus. Musk imagines it will one day be sold as a “general purpose” mechanical humanoid -- cheaper than a car and equally capable of working in factories and doing chores at home. We are facing the 21st century “future shock” while trying to determine whether these new hi-tech innovations will enhance our lifestyle, or if they will contribute to and perhaps even cause the destruction of society and life. Tonight on Ground Zero, Clyde Lewis talks about OPTIMUS CRIME. #GroundZero #ClydeLewis #OptimusCrime
