Elon Musk's dream will be shattered! The 'enemy' is creating human robots, keeping scientists at whatever price he asks for
OpenAI has started working on humanoid robots that look like humans. OpenAI's goal is to create robots that can work not only like machines but also like humans.

OpenAI, a company that is rapidly gaining fame in the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI), is now going to take another big step. According to reports, the company has started working on humanoid robots that look like humans.
For this, OpenAI has also started recruiting top researchers and scientists from around the world. Let us tell you, Elon Musk is also working on humanoid robots. Many videos of his robot Optimus have appeared on social media. Now Elon Musk may get a shock from OpenAI's announcement.
Why humanoid robots?
OpenAI's goal is to create robots that can work not only like machines but also like humans. According to the report, the company is creating AI algorithms that will make robots smarter.
These robots will be taught through virtual simulation and teleoperation technology, so that they can learn on their own and perform difficult tasks.
New research and spatial reasoning
News is that OpenAI has started working on algorithms that will help robots understand their surroundings better. This is called spatial reasoning in technical language.
This will enable humanoid robots to perform complex and precise tasks, such as household chores, technical work or even interacting with humans in a safe manner.
Recruitment of high-profile talent
The report claims that OpenAI has hired several renowned researchers for this project. In June 2025, the company added renowned Stanford University researcher Chengshu Li to its team. He has done research on systems to measure the performance of robots and train them for household tasks.
Apart from this, two more researchers have also been hired by OpenAI from a big robotics lab. Even a professor from a humanoid robotics research center said that one of his students has been recruited to work at OpenAI.
There will be a direct competition with Tesla.
This move of OpenAI will bring it in a direct competition with Elon Musk's company Tesla. Tesla is already working on its Optimus Robots. These human-like robots are being prepared to do domestic and industrial work.
Interestingly, Elon Musk himself has been the co-founder of OpenAI. He started the company in 2015, but stepped down from the board in 2018.
Since then, he has often criticized OpenAI's direction and its security policies. Now that OpenAI is building humanoid robots on its own, it is being considered a direct competition to Musk and Tesla.
Why is this a big step?
The use of AI is no longer limited to just chatbots or text generation. If robots that look and think like humans are created, it can change every area of our lives—be it household work, industry or healthcare.
But along with this, many security and ethical questions are also being raised. This is the reason why the world is keeping an eye on the work of both OpenAI and Tesla.
