Elon Plans xAI Supercomputer, Dubbed ‘Gigafactory of Compute’

$Tesla(TSLA.US)$ $BYD COMPANY(01211.HK)$ $NIO Inc(NIO.US)$ $XPeng(XPEV.US)$ The article reported that Elon Musk has told investors he plans to build a supercomputer dubbed "gigafactory of compute" to support the development of his artificial intelligence startup xAI, an industry news outlet reported Saturday. Musk wants the supercomputer which will string together 100,000 Nvidia chips - operational by fall 2025, and "will hold himself personally responsible for delivering it on time," The Information said.

My Take: Major tech players are all racing to build increasingly large GPU clusters, believing more computing power is the key to stronger AI. Even Tesla is developing an in-house AI supercomputer. According to the article, EM is using funds raised by xAI, an artificial intelligence company started by him. There is a high possibility that xAI and Tesla can collaborate to develop this powerful supercomputer.
