BlockBeats News, March 11th, Musk stated that Macrohard or Digital Optimus is a joint project of xAI and Tesla, part of Tesla's investment agreement with xAI. Grok is the main controller/navigator with a deep understanding of the world, responsible for commanding Digital Optimus. Digital Optimus will process and execute real-time computer screen video and keyboard/mouse operations from the past 5 seconds. Grok is like a more advanced, sophisticated navigation software.
You can think of Digital Optimus AI as System 1 (the instinctual part of the brain), while Grok is System 2 (the thinking part of the brain). It will run on the ultra-low-cost Tesla AI4 ($650) while also being able to parsimoniously utilize the higher-priced xAI Nvidia hardware. And it will be the only real-time intelligent AI system. This is significant.
In principle, Digital Optimus AI can simulate the entire operation of a company. That's why the program is named MACROHARD, a playful jab at Microsoft. Currently, no other company can do this.
