Musk: We will build AI chips at higher volumes “than all other AI chips combined”

In a late-night post on X, Elon Musk boasted about Tesla’s custom AI chip plans.

Musk said the current version of Tesla’s AI chip, the A14, is in cars and data centers today, while work is underway on the A15 and A16. The goal is an Apple-style yearly iteration of its workhorse custom AI chip.

Musk wrote: “We expect to build chips at higher volumes ultimately than all other AI chips combined. Read that sentence again, as I’m not kidding.”

Elon Musk on X: "Most people don’t know that Tesla has had an advanced AI chip and board engineering team for many years.”
