Elon Musk says Tesla’s restarted Dojo3 will be for ‘space-based AI compute’

SMRTR summary

Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced plans to restart the company's abandoned Dojo3 AI chip project, but this time for "space-based AI compute" rather than self-driving cars. The move reverses Tesla's previous strategy of shutting down its custom chip development team and relies on the company's AI5 chip progress and SpaceX's launch capabilities.
