Optimus V3 hardware is locked in, but Tesla still hasn't shown the bot publicly. A supplier's IPO filing confirms V3 design is "essentially frozen" — meaning it's production-ready.
Tesla is now hiring for high-volume Optimus assembly in Austin and fleet coordinators across multiple sites. Elon even cut AI5's RAM in half to free up supply for Optimus production. That's a real resource shift.
The bottleneck? The hand. Elon's testing standard: drive a tiny screw into wood and open a pickle jar. Once that works reliably, V3 likely ships.
Earnings drop Wednesday: 2:30pm PT / 4:30pm CT / 5:30pm ET. Watch for Optimus timelines, production scale, and any mention of deployment pilots.
