(Web Desk) - This is the eerie moment Elon Musk unveiled his creepy faceless Optimus robots that he boasts can do anything, even babysit children.

The tech billionaire will unleash the humanoid bots into his Tesla factories next year before they're made available to other companies in 2026.

In a video posted on his own X account, Musk can be heard presenting the life-size machines as they marched into a Tesla event.

He said: "You're really gonna have something spectacular. Something that anyone could own.

"You can have your own personal R2-D2 [or] C3-PO."
A montage then plays showing the multiple uses of the Opimus robots.

The faceless bot, dubbed an "autonomous assistant" or a "humanoid friend" by Tesla, can be seen picking up a parcel at the doorstep, watering plants as a human family enjoys their time together.

It can then be seen joining in on the fun and playing games with a dad and his children before it goes on to help mum in the kitchen.

"It will basically do anything you want," Musk explains.

"It can be a teacher, or babysit your kids, walk your dog, mow your lawn, get the groceries, just be your friend, serve drinks, whatever you can think of, it will do."

An exact price for the bot is yet to be announced by Musk has previously suggested it will be lower than $20,000 (£17,900).
