Part 5/10:
Tesla’s advantage lies in its ability to construct custom operating software that directly translates applications into hardware-specific instructions. Unlike Nvidia's CUDA, which accommodates a wide array of AI applications, Tesla's design allows for highly specialized, efficient processing for its own use cases—like Optimus or robo-taxis. Musk notes that Tesla has identified approximately 42 key operations crucial to the functioning of Optimus, RoboTaxi, and XAI, which can be embedded directly into hardware and software layers from scratch.
