Ya, the meatbag in a robotic suit was rather... poorly done.  
As for the technology 
- Tesla Vision with AI integration is going to show just how right this technology is over lidar.  
- A significant amount of the presentation was on tesla autopilot
 
 
- Project Dojo
- Is the original image.  
 
- It's a super-fast training computer.
 
- 25 D1 chips / multi chip module / fan out waffer
 
- ExaPod 1.1 EFLOP (1 billion billion calculations per second a thousandfold increase over the first petascale computer that came into operation in 2008) 
- 120 Training Tiles | 3000 D1 Chips | > 1M Training nodes.
 
- Uses PyTorch-Extensions / JIT NN Compiler LLVM Backend for generating binary
 
 
 
The Tesla bot seems to be in the very early stages of development. 
But I have to say Dojo is the more exciting technology presented and I can't imaging the possibilities that one can do with one of the training tiles and in fact, I think this might unlock a lot more than just training AI.
