Samsung is supplying 14nm chips to Tesla for the HW3 version of FSD.
The in-vehicle infotainment system (IVI) uses a variety of chips such as processors, neural network processors (NPUs), security integrated circuits, memory, and display driver IC (DDI).
TSMC. Taiwan TSMC has had the world’s first 7nm chip for self driving vehicles in May 2020. Samsung Electronics is skipping the 7nm chips for 5 nanometer.

Yeah, but spinning up a EUV fab isn't done over a weekend, BBQ included…
Samsung just announced big expansion in Austin, so will prob do the Tesla chips?
Nice fight over lidar. Seems it will be almost free soon. Musk kept calling it *radar* when showing Dragon, which uses it, until he was corrected on stage. So he may have traumatic association there.
Yet. They won’t keep it secret when the system doesn’t need driver supervision anymore.
Gee, you mean Waymo doesn’t publicly say it’s wasting it’s time competing with Tesla and is doomed to failure? Who’d have expected them to say that?
A direct competitor would probably be considered the least qualified to publicly assess their biggest rival honestly.
I think Brian should tell us what Tesla meant by full self driving, because it seems rather misleading. According to Tesla’s own website, the system requires active driver supervision and does not make the car autonomous.
Blimey well that just shows Mr Musk best Tesla just gives up completely eh?
Except
Well time will tell won`t it.
Great fireworks. Tesla autonomy has finally been properly debunked by one of the most qualified people to do so. Bigger computation power does not lead from driving assist to true autonomy.
