TERAFAB: the next step to becoming a galactic civilization
Together with @SpaceX & @xAI, we're building the largest chip manufacturing facility ever (1TW/year) – combining logic, memory & advanced packaging under one roof.
To harness as much power as possible from the Sun, we need to send 100 million tons of solar capture into space – per year.
This requires massive scale.
– Capability to launch millions of tons of mass into orbit
– Solar-powered AI satellites
– Millions of @Tesla_Optimus robots to help build it out
All of these need chips: 100-200GW of chips for Optimus alone, plus terawatts for solar-powered AI satellites.
That's more than all the chip manufacturers in the world combined can provide today, or even by 2030 (based on projected production growth).
We're building TERAFAB to close the gap between today’s chip production & the future's demand – a future among the stars

- right now https://t.co/9cNsUt3Ler is a reroute from https://t.co/syNeqv3LQv, it would be much better if the subdomain https://t.co/9cNsUt3Ler could be a completely separate domain only for grok with different login options.
- I feel sometimes Grok is less capable of remembering what the user has given an instruction. For eg. if I add an email and ask Grok to write the email correctly and later ask to add some new sentence, the latter part it sometimes misunderstood, and writes a completely different email. It can be improved.
- I recently used Grok to help me set up a k3s cluster and then later asked Grok to help configure a monitoring pipeline (RabbitMQ -> Logstash -> Opensearch -> Grafana), it was mostly correct but it failed a proper search on the internet in getting the latest config paraments for configuring the monitoring pipeline.
- The image generation part is still lacking, it mostly failed to get any user instruction to generate an image. I would love the feature where you upload an image and wanted to do some modifications on top of that.
But for the price point compared to other rivals, it is worth every penny. #xAI team is doing a commendable job hats off 🫡
