Elon Musk wants to build 50 times more chips than the world currently produces, using ‘new physics’

Elon Musk announced plans to build a "Terafab" chip manufacturing facility in Austin, Texas, aiming to produce a terawatt of computing power annually—50 times more than current global production of 20 gigawatts. His ambitious vision involves creating two specialized chips: one for humanoid robots on Earth and another for space-based satellites, with the ultimate goal of launching 10 million tons of computing infrastructure into orbit yearly using massive Starship rockets launching every ten minutes.
