Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced that the Terafab project will officially launch in seven days. This semiconductor manufacturing facility aims to produce specialized AI chips necessary for Tesla's self-driving technology and other AI applications.

The Terafab will integrate logic chip production, memory fabrication, and advanced packaging under one roof, potentially producing hundreds of billions of chips annually. Musk indicated that reliance on external manufacturers like TSMC and Samsung is insufficient to meet Tesla's growing demands, necessitating this investment in domestic chip production. The construction will begin immediately, positioning Tesla within a competitive semiconductor landscape.
