Tesla Ends Dojo Plans, Bets Big on New AI5 and AI6 Chips

Elon Musk has announced that Tesla has officially ended work on its Dojo artificial intelligence (AI) training computer.

This decision comes after he had shared plans for a second Dojo cluster, which was expected to be up and running by 2026.

In a post on X, Musk said, "Once it became clear that all paths converged to AI6, I had to shut down Dojo and make some tough personnel choices, as Dojo 2 was now an evolutionary dead end".

He added that what might have been called "Dojo 3" exists in a different form, a board filled with AI6 system-on-a-chip units.

The company is currently focusing entirely on two newer chips, AI5 and AI6. These are being produced by major chipmakers TSMC and Samsung. AI5 is made to support Tesla’s Full Self-Driving software, while AI6 is meant for both training and real-time decision-making in self-driving cars and robots.

On August 8, Musk stated on X that continuing to work on two different chip designs no longer made sense. He said the newer AI chips are good enough for training and very strong for real-time tasks, and that all development would now focus on these.

He also explained why putting many AI5 and AI6 chips together on one board is a better option than the earlier Dojo layout.
