Musk Builds Terafab To Boost Domestic Chips
|
8.1
Elon Musk on March 22, 2026 unveiled Terafab, a $20–$25 billion joint Tesla, SpaceX and xAI project to build domestic chip fabrication in Austin, Texas. The announcement responds to U.S. reliance on overseas logic-chip production—about 44.2% tied to Taiwan—and recent allegations of $510 million in smuggled AI hardware. The project aims to shorten supply chains and reduce export-control vulnerabilities over time.
