Tesla Wants to Build 20,000 Optimus Robots a Week. Here's the Supplier That Gets Paid for Every Single One -- and It's Not Nvidia.
What happened
Tesla has stated it wants to build Optimus robots at a rate of 20,000 units per week; this is a stated desire/target, not an achieved output. The article title says there is a supplier that gets paid for every single Optimus robot and explicitly notes it is not Nvidia, but the body does not name the supplier. The body provides only publication details: dated Nov 4, 2026, authored by Jeremy Bowman, plus an unrelated teaser headline asking whether Elon Musk was the midterms' biggest loser and what it means for Tesla and SpaceX investors. The source does not state the cause.
