I think it’s an intentional distraction. The vector map stuff is a reply to last week’s news cycle where the FTC and
the NHTSA are both probing the safety of the self-driving systems, but the robot announcement is to make sure no one discusses the “gosh we made the AI better” claims.

This event was planned way before the recent probing.
This was an event to inspire and recruit bright minds.
I doubt it has anything to do with FTC or NHTSA, or even Tesla owners. It was not to announce a new version of the FSD. It was job fair.
Tesla 202x -> Yo guys, look at this vector map we've created with 8 cams and a PS4. But forget about this, you know what ROBOT, LOOK AT THIS ROBOT NOT THE 7K YOU'VE SPENT ON FSD, LOOK AT THIS ROBOT IS FANTASTIC. LOOK HOW THE ROBOT DANCES. ROBOT.
