The robot reportedly immobilised the engineer and left the victim with an ‘open wound’

A Tesla engineer at the company’s factory near Austin was allegedly attacked by a robot in 2021, according to an incident report filed with regulators.

Witnesses allegedly observed the robot at the Giga Texas factory pin the engineer and claw at his back and arm, causing a “trail of blood” on the factory floor, according to the 2021 injury report filed to Travis county and federal regulators, which was reviewed by DailyMail.com.

The robot reportedly immobilised the engineer and left the victim with an “open wound” on his left hand.

The robot was designed to handle freshly-cast aluminium car parts.

The Independent has contacted Tesla for comment.

The engineer was able to break free from the assembly robot after a colleague pressed the emergency stop button. Upon being released, the engineer reportedly tumbled a few feet down a chute intended for collecting scrap aluminium, leaving a trail of blood.

According to reports, Tesla said the engineer’s injuries did not require him to take any time off work.

Tesla has faced criticism for its handling of workplace safety and accident reporting. At the Giga Texas plant, data has shown a higher rate of injuries compared to industry averages. In cases of severe on-the-job injuries, the ratio was one in every 26 workers at the Tesla Giga Texas plant compared to one in 38 workers at other major US auto factories.

Nice one.

Let the machines take over. In terminator's voice. "I will be back"

Funny thing is that the robot is just a mechanical equipment preprogrammed to do ONE thing. It's not powered by AI.

Wait until all these robots are powered by AI. Humanity would be enslaved.

You'd think smart people would understand the extent of danger posed by Artificial Intelligence. Buy NO, they are all chasing after how to exploit it to make more money.

By the time the advancements in AI is merged with advancements in Robotics, we'd have mechanical instruments that are FASTER, SMARTER and STRONGER than us.

Yet somehow, these people assume they would be able to contain and control it. I fear for the future of humans cz that's like rodents trying to control human beings.

I just hope the rapture would have come before then and I would be taken away with the saints of the Lord

They have NO idea what they messing with
