Tesla sues former Optimus engineer for theft of trade secrets, Bloomberg reports

Tesla (TSLA) has filed a lawsuit against former Optimus engineer Zhongjie “Jay” Li, who worked at Tesla from 2022 to 2024, accusing him of stealing humanoid robot information and setting up a rival startup, Bloomberg’s Dana Hull reports. “Less than a week after he left Tesla, Proception was incorporated,” according to the complaint. “And within just five months, Proception publicly claimed to have ‘successfully built’ advanced humanoid robotic hands — hands that bear a striking resemblance to the designs Li worked on at Tesla.”
