South Korea's Samsung Electronics signed a $16.5 billion, eight-year contract to supply semiconductors to a global company, which Elon Musk said was Tesla.,

Samsung will produce AI6 semiconductors, the next-generation chip, for Tesla’s self-driving mode and other projects.

Musk noted Tesla is working with TSMC to make AI5 chips, which just finished the design. The AI5, a generation that is primarily built for FSD, will initially be made in TSMC’s Taiwan factory and then at its Arizona facility. Samsung already makes the AI4 chip, according to Musk.
