Tesla just taped out the AI5 chip, huge milestone for FSD, Robotaxi & Optimus.
• Single AI5 delivers ~5x the real-world compute of a dual AI4 setup
• Massive leaps: ~8x compute power, 9x memory & 5x bandwidth vs current gen
• One chip matches Nvidia H100 performance for Tesla workloads; dual setup rivals Blackwell, but at way lower cost & power draw
• Radically simplified & optimized for edge AI inference (INT4/INT2/FP8 focus), perfect for cars & humanoid robots
• Full AI5 computer targets 2,000–2,500 TOPS (vs ~300–500 for AI4)
• “AI5 will make the cars almost perfect and greatly enhance Optimus”
• “AI5 will punch far above its weight” thanks to Tesla’s tightly co-designed hardware + software stack
Built in the USA (TSMC Arizona + Samsung Texas), with Terafab scaling up.
Congratulations @elonmusk and @Tesla
Jon Bernthal quit The Punisher once. Then Marvel asked him to write it.
During the original Born Again production in 2023, Bernthal walked off set because he didn't like how Frank Castle was being written. An actor with no credited screenwriting experience looked at a Marvel paycheck and said no.
Marvel retooled the entire show. Hired Dario Scardapane from the original Punisher series as showrunner. Bernthal came back. Then during filming he pitched them a standalone special. Marvel reviewed his writing samples and told him to formally pitch it.
He co-wrote the screenplay with Reinaldo Marcus Green, who directed King Richard. It runs 60 minutes, the longest Marvel Special Presentation ever. It carries a TV-MA rating. He's also an executive producer. First credited writing work of his career.
The line he gave in interviews: "I didn't want them to just hand it to me. They've held me accountable to every step along the way."
That's three MCU projects in one year. Born Again. One Last Kill. Spider-Man: Brand New Day. He filmed the Punisher special and then walked directly onto the Spider-Man set and told Tom Holland and the director the character had to feel the same across both.
The actor who had zero leverage in 2019 when Netflix canceled him now has more creative control over a Marvel character than almost any actor in the MCU's history. He got it by being willing to lose the role twice.
We
– design the chips & hardware
– make the cars w/ said hardware
– collect real-world data at scale
– train the real-world AI model
– built (& continue to expand) the massive supercomputer cluster that trains it
– deploy AI directly to millions of robots on wheels
All that is shared with @Tesla_Optimus for broader applications in both the physical & digital world

@JamesRoyNFL Can u blame having to switch schemes??
CJ looked rough and checked out all season long. Like he wasn’t happy with the new OC scheme.
Definitely though Caserío has a busy Offseason
