Key posts from Elon Musk, Tesla, SpaceX, and xAI
TSMC is exploring a role in Terafab, Elon's Texas chip project. Elon's reply was "Just discussions, but something may come of it." @thejefflutz calls it the battery playbook again.
We are building the infrastructure of the future, from supercomputers to Terafab to Gigasat to a new Starbase in Louisiana
Power quality can be solved with Tesla Megapacks. There isn’t enough nearby land to power Terafab entirely with solar, but it will be partially solar-powered.
Yes, Terafab will be over a trillion dollars long-term if it achieves a terawatt/year of silicon, but that would still be an incredible ROI
SpaceX has already absorbed xAI, which operates the Grok AI model, in February while Tesla is developing, among other products, specialised AI chips. The companies have also jointly announced an ambitious semiconductor manufacturing project called Terafab.
