Kardashian recently took to Instagram to share a striking nighttime photo shoot featuring Elon Musk's gold $30,000 Tesla robot.
In the shots, the reality TV star posed provocatively with the humanoid bot inside her custom Tesla Model S, wearing sheer, nude-toned tights layered with black stocking prints and a garter belt illusion.
She paired the look with a puffy black jacket, left open to reveal her bare shoulders.
One of the shots showed Kardashian crouched beside the vehicle, her risque outfit stealing the spotlight, while the robot lounged in the driver's seat with one foot propped on the edge of her driveway.
Another photo shared to Kardashian's 359 million Instagram followers captured the bot resting its hand on her thigh as she posed from the neck down.
In another frame, the 44-year-old and the robot appeared to hold hands, seated side-by-side in the luxury electric car.
The Reality Star's Tesla Bot Photoshoot Divides Fans
Kardashian's daring photo shoot left fans divided, with some calling it "unnerving" and "futuristic," while others found the concept downright bizarre, labeling it "weird" and "embarrassing."
A skeptical commenter asked, "But what if they put a camera on the inside of the robots and it's really surveillance?"
Others pushed back against the shoot's bold narrative. "Sorry Kim, you're not gonna normalize this weird behavior for us, we don't want this!" one user wrote.
Another person quipped, "I mean, it makes sense that she would get along with a robot; they have the same personalities."
A fourth individual said, "This is so embarrassing, Kim."
However, not everyone took the images seriously. Some joked about the pairing, with one fan commenting, "Looks like Kim has finally met her soulmate."
Another speculated, "I'm wondering how much Tesla and Elon had to fork out to get Kim to do this."

Earlier this week, Kardashian shared a surreal moment with her own Tesla bot in another video uploaded to Instagram.
In the clip, the mom of four greeted the humanoid robot with a wave, which the machine surprisingly returned.
She then asked the bot to form a heart shape with its hands and was shocked when it completed the gesture.
The robot also showcased more of its capabilities, mimicking a running motion, performing a hula dance, and gesturing to indicate its height.
Kardashian even played a quick game of rock-paper-scissors with the machine, which it did.
Kim Kardashian Was Pulled Over By The Police In Her Cybertruck
The reality TV star has long been a fan of Tesla, often seen driving her custom vehicles, including the Cybertruck.
Just days ago, she had a minor run-in with the law while driving her Cybertruck along the Pacific Coast Highway.
According to TMZ, the reality star was pulled over by police due to her front windshield tint being too dark, violating California's vehicle regulations.
The mother of four was reportedly given a fix-it ticket due to the violation.
This was not Kardashian's first time getting pulled over for having an overly dark windshield, as she had been warned by police in Calabasas back in 2013 for the same issue.
