At the heart of Tesla's technological revolution is the unveiling of their AI-5 chip, a processor described as being 40 times more powerful than its predecessor, the AI-4. This leap in performance promises to enable Tesla's autonomous vehicles and humanoid robots to operate with unprecedented speed and efficiency.
Josh explains that Tesla's AI chips have been central since the company's early days, powering autopilot features with significant inference capabilities. Moving from AI-1 to AI-2.5, then to AI-3 and AI-4, Tesla has gradually increased processing power. Now, AI-5 represents a sizable upgrade, slated to handle models with up to 250 billion parameters—a notable feat even amid models reaching trillions.
