AI still consumes a lot of power, so a lot of work needs to be done to mitigate concerns around power consumption and lack of cooling to avoid overloading servers and causing excessive drains.
AI continues to be a transformative force in the global business landscape and has real potential to drive significant innovation, but computing requires a delicate balance to avoid excessive energy consumption.
Advances in Supercomputing
Cortex joins a lineup of supercomputers currently in development from Elon Musk, who is already working on several large-scale AI computing projects, including the xAI supercomputer, which will feature 100,000 NVIDIA H100 GPUs and be upgraded to 300,000 NVIDIA B200 GPUs in 2025.
Tesla is hard at work training the Tesla Self-Driving (FSD) autopilot system that will be installed in consumer Tesla vehicles and proposed “cyber taxi” products. This is in addition to training the AI of Optimus, an autonomous humanoid robot that is not yet in production but is expected to be used in Tesla's manufacturing process.
