Elon Musk unveiled Tesla's self-driving robotaxi, expected to be available by 2023. The fully electric car has no steering wheel or pedals, is priced under $30,000, and charged wirelessly with inductive technology. Musk claimed it to be 10 to 20 times safer than human-driven cars. He also introduced humanoid robots called 'Optimus' that could perform tasks and provide companionship. Several US states filed lawsuits against TikTok, accusing it of being addictive to kids and harming their mental health. TikTok is also facing a potential ban in the US if it isn't sold by mid-January. Furthermore, Meta unveiled an AI tool called 'Meta Movie Gen' for generating and editing videos with AI-generated sound effects and music.
