Tesla's next-gen AI5 chips is going to be manufactured by both TSMC and, now, Samsung in America. Musk claims that it's 40x faster than the outgoing AI4 silicon, mostly because of a radical design approach that ditches legacy hardware blocks to focus on what's needed right now.

Elon Musk has confirmed that Tesla's AI6 chip will be manufactured at both Samsung's Taylor facility and TSMC's Arizona fab. The update from the company's CEO follows earlier comments in which he described Samsung's site as technically superior.
