The event, titled “We, Robot,” drew inspiration from the 2004 film “I, Robot,” starring Will Smith, which portrays a world where advanced robots turn on humans. The similarities between the event and the movie extend beyond the name. The autonomous vehicles and Optimus bore a striking resemblance to the technology depicted in the film.

I, Robot' director Alex Proyas accused Elon Musk and Tesla of copying his designs for the film for the company's recently unveiled prototypes.
