Elon Musk unveils mega AI chip project Terafab for Tesla and SpaceX in Austin; says it will ‘redefine chip manufacturing at scale’
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has unveiled his plans to build the ambitious Terafab semiconductor project in Austin, Texas, according to a report by Bloomberg. The project will be jointly operated by Telsa and SpaceX along with the support from his AI company xAI. Speaking at the downtown Austin event, Musk revealed that the facility will start as an “advanced technology fab” capable of producing and testing chips from various kinds. Musk also argued that the global semiconductor industry is moving too slowly to meet the demand he anticipates for robotics, autonomic driving and AI. “We either build the Terafab or we don’t have the chips, and we need the chips, so we build the Terafab,” he said.
