- startupfortune.com Musk's Terafab push puts ASML at the center of the AI chip race - Startup Fortune Tesla wants chips for autonomous driving and robotics. xAI needs compute for model training and inference. SpaceX has its own advanced hardware needs and could become the entity that carries the heavy industrial side of the project. If those businesses keep expanding their chip demand, relying entirely on outside foundries leaves them exposed to the same capacity fight facing every serious AI operator. Building a fab is the extreme answer to that problem.
