And Intel still hasn’t had much success in attracting other companies to use its manufacturing technology, though Elon Musk says he will use the company’s forthcoming 14A process for his “Terafab” — a huge manufacturing complex the billionaire hopes to build in Texas.
Tesla is transitioning from an automaker to a "physical AI" powerhouse, with investors betting on its Terafab facility and upcoming Cybercab production to drive future growth.
¿Terafab ya fabrica chips? No. Por ahora es un proyecto en planificación. Musk ha hablado de una primera fab de investigación en Giga Texas y de una visión a mayor escala, pero no hay producción comercial confirmada.
Sans aucun doute, la Terafab vise à devenir le nouveau centre de gravité du silicium texan. Elon Musk construit son giga-usine pour internaliser la production de puces et s’affranchir de ...
He first publicly detailed the lunar mass driver concept — describing it as a "cannon-like device using magnetic power" — during an xAI all-hands meeting in February 2026. By March 21, SpaceX had formally integrated electromagnetic mass drivers into its lunar roadmap under what has been referred to as "Project TERAFAB."
He sees orbit as prime for massive compute, unburdened by Earth’s limits. 100 terawatts dwarfs ground plans; his proposed SpaceX-Tesla Terafab chip plant targets one terawatt yearly, per Investor’s Business Daily.
One of the most significant benefits of integrating Intel's TeraFab technology into SpaceX's Starlink satellites is the drastic improvement in data processing capabilities essential for Starship missions. These custom chips offer robust radiation‑hardening, critical for operational reliability in the harsh conditions of space environments such as those encountered during Mars missions.
According to the plan, 80% of the chips produced by Terafab will be deployed in space for SpaceX’s interstellar AI satellite data centers and radiation-hardened chip needs, while 20% will be allocated for terrestrial applications, including Tesla FSD, Cybercab robotaxis, and Optimus humanoid robots.
“Our ability to design, fabricate, and package ultra-high-performance chips at scale will help accelerate Terafab’s aim to produce 1 TW/year of compute to power future advances in AI and robotics,” the company said.
Critically, though, the cost of reusable rockets must fall appreciably for the idea to make economic sense. SpaceX's Starship has brought down the cost of placing payloads in orbit into the realm of possibility, not feasibility. There is enough evidence, including Musk's record, to suggest Terafab may not deliver to timelines drawn for investors.
In a move that shifts Tesla’s focus from the assembly line to the silicon wafer, CEO Elon Musk has detailed the "Terafab"—a massive semiconductor complex in Austin, Texas, designed to produce a staggering 1 terawatt of compute per year.
Intel has announced that it will help Elon Musk design and build his proposed Terafab in Austin, Texas, a joint venture between Musk's companies like SpaceX, Tesla and xAI to manufacture the chips necessary to power various AI projects.
AUSTIN, Texas — Semiconductor manufacturing company Intel announced on Tuesday that it will help with Elon Musk’s $20 billion chip-manufacturing facility project. The company posted the news on X, a social media platform owned by Musk, saying that it would join the Terafab project—a joint venture between Musk’s companies Tesla, SpaceX and xAI.
TSLA's $25B+ CapEx for Terafab, Cortex, and Optimus will likely drive negative FCF and margin compression in H2-FY2026, exacerbated by one-off Q1 margin inflators.
For all the Musk haters. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/elon-s-terafab-is-moving-at-light-speed-and-that-could-mean-big-things-for-tesla/ar-AA22irvx
Tesla TERAFAB and TERALAB will have vertical integration and scaling. They have all the semiconductor leaders helping the achieve next level AI chips. They have Intel, Samsung and TSMC as partners.

Para referência, a TSMC leva décadas e centenas de bilhões de dólares para construir capacidade equivalente, e suas primeiras fábricas de 2nm nos EUA não devem atingir produção plena antes de 2029. O custo estimado do projeto gira entre US$ 20 bilhões e US$ 25 bilhões. Musk já indicou que, quando a Terafab estiver em escala, pretende utilizar o processo de próxima geração da Intel, o 14A, descrevendo a tecnologia como “provavelmente bastante madura ou pronta para uso em produção em larga escala”
Intel has officially partnered with Elon Musk to design and build the Terafab facility in Austin, Texas. This project, valued at $25 billion, aims to centralize chip manufacturing for SpaceX, xAI, and Tesla.
