Kim Kardashian has a new best friend, and it's not who you might think! The reality star has been hanging out with a $30,000 robot named Optimus, and she's even taken it for a spin in Tesla's upcoming Cybercab. While Optimus is not yet available to the general public, Kim got some hands-on experience with the human-shaped robot at Tesla's We, Robot event last month. The robots that greeted guests on the ground were not autonomous, but it's likely that Kim's own experience with Optimus was mediated by humans. Kim didn't flag her videos with Optimus as sponsored, but she's already bought into the Tesla sphere as she owns a Cybertruck. She recently got pulled over because her front window was tinted too dark, so maybe Optimus can help her fix that!
