Event summary
Elon Musk has praised Tesla's AI chip design team and stated that their upcoming AI6 chip could set a new record for usable intelligence per semiconductor wafer, focusing on both raw computing power and manufacturing efficiency. The AI6 chip is expected to use Samsung's 2-nanometer process and aims for a tapeout in December 2026, with Tesla also exploring TSMC for an AI6.5 version. This effort is part of Musk's broader plan to reduce reliance on external foundries through projects like Terafab.
