Tesla is designing its fifth-generation AI chip to power its autonomous ambitions, and Musk at the company’s annual meeting laid out potential manufacturing plans. “You know, maybe we’ll, we’ll do something with Intel,” Musk said to a cheering crowd of Tesla shareholders. Musk has teased the AI5 chip before and reiterated that Tesla was also partnering with Taiwan’s TSMC and South Korea’s Samsung. The AI chips power Tesla’s autonomous driving systems, including the Full Self-Driving software. “Even when we extrapolate the best-case scenario for chip production from our suppliers, it’s still not enough,” he said on Thursday.
