Optimus robots were remotely controlled by humans at the "We, Robot" event during Cybercab. They are not ready even for demo purposes.

It was clever trick because many attendees did not even think the possibility hose were teleoperated interactions because Musk did not bring it up. Some investment firms were clearly not amused by it.

It seemed pretty obvious to me. Yet, I was pretty impressed nonetheless, I mean, the sheer dexterity of movement of these things with a human-hand anatomy surprised me, I don't think I've seen it before, and didn't know carnival toys are at this level yet. Is it a commonplace technology? It seems like it must have some practical uses, to be able to operate an almost-human body remotely like that. But, as I've just said, I don't think I ever saw this, only clunky specialized robots with poor movement control. And Boston dynamics pre-programmed toys.
