Tesla’s head of Optimus development, Milan Kovac, has just announced his departure from Tesla.
Kovac will be replaced by Tesla’s Autopilot head, Ashok Elluswamy according to media outlets.

Kovac lead Optimus development from 2022 and has been with Tesla for a decade.

Kovac has sighted the need to return to be with family abroad, but speculation remains rife on X; with the announcement coming less than 24 hours after Musk’s unhinged outburst towards Trump.

Interestingly the news appeared in the media about an hour before Kovac had a chance to post an official announcement on X. Someone at Tesla is leaking insider info to the press.
