Is xAI a neocloud now? | TechCrunch
Some of the data centers might be in space — at least by 2035, if things go according to plan. xAI will be making its own chips at the Terafab, which will take away some but not all of Nvidia's pricing power.
Nvidia, Corning's factory plans could mean thousands of jobs in Austin
Several other companies, like Apple, Samsung Electronics, Tesla and IBM, have announced plans to build plants in the U.S., including several in Texas. Advertisement · Article continues below this ad · RELATED: Elon Musk proposes $55 billion Terafab facility near College Station ·
Musk Eyeing Bryan-College Station Site for Massive Chip Fabrication Plant - Connect CRE
Elon Musk may be preparing to build a massive semiconductor fabrication plant near the Texas A&M campus, just outside Bryan-College Station. His Space Exploration Technologies Corp. company has requested a tax abatement for the Terafab project from Grimes County. The Austin Business Journal said Musk tweeted on X that the Grimes County location is among several sites under consideration for the Terafab project.
Musk-backed Terafab chip project may reach $119 billion investment - SemiMedia
A public hearing related to the tax package is scheduled for June 3. The planned site near Austin, Texas, is expected to include logic chip production, memory manufacturing and advanced packaging facilities within a single semiconductor campus.
Tesla Is Adding 'Weather Radar' to Intel Vehicles [VIDEO]
That specific shrinking process requires ASML's most advanced, heavily backlogged EUV machinery. GaN operates under a different set of physical rules. It can handle significantly higher voltages, temperatures, and frequencies than silicon. Because of these inherent material advantages, highly efficient GaN chiplets can be manufactured on slightly more mature nodes using widely available Deep Ultraviolet (DUV) lithography equipment. By leaning heavily into GaN architectures, TERAFAB can side
Dan Ives: Tesla Is ‘Morphing into a Physical AI Stalwart’ So Don’t Sweat the CapEx and Just Buy TSLA Stock
At the heart of this transformation is the company’s “Terafab” semiconductor project, humanoid robots, autonomous robotaxis, and tight collaboration with SpaceX on custom chips and space‑based systems.

SpaceX’s Terafab plan shows the startup economy is becoming a factory economy – Startup Fortune
It is the language of a company trying to build the physical substrate for its own future, at a scale more often associated with state-backed industrial policy or a giant automaker than with a private aerospace firm. If SpaceX once looked like a launch company with some manufacturing attached, Terafab suggests the company now wants to be judged on its ability to own more of the supply chain that makes launches, satellites, and eventually compute possible.
The Intellionaire Ep. 26: TERAFAB (& welcome to new investors!)
Elon reports that AI7, “will need a different fab, since compared to AI5/AI6 it’s a more adventurous design” - one could infer this meant they were moving towards Intel as the primary manufacturer for future chips with backside power delivery and/or High-NA EUV. Random Andy Grove quotes about “only the paranoid survive”, as well as directly mentioning at the Tesla investor day that “we might even do something with Intel”, back when Terafab was first announced.
