Elon’s AI Chip Quest: Building Robots, Meeting Twice Weekly, Crying Into $16.5B
KEY POINTS
- •Elon Musk personally leads Tesla AI chip design meetings every Tuesday and Saturday.
- •Tesla is hiring engineers with 10+ years experience for high-paying chip design and testing roles.
- •Tesla signed a $16.5 billion deal with Samsung to manufacture AI16 chips in their new Texas plant opening in 2026.
- •Musk expects Tesla to mass-produce AI chips at volumes exceeding all competitors combined within a year.
Elon Musk, not content with simply colonizing Mars, is now demanding engineers send him three bullet points proving they’re chip genius for Tesla’s AI hardware team—because vague emails always scream 'exceptional ability.' Twice a week, including Saturday mornings no one enjoys, Musk personally babysits chip design meetings, promising fresh AI chips like the AI5 and AI6 annually. He bragged Tesla’s volume will outpace all other AI chips combined, backed by a $16.5 billion deal with Samsung's Texas plant, conveniently near his house. Meanwhile, Tesla’s paid up to $318K for engineers to help Optimus robots not destroy humanity… hopefully.
