What happened
Tesla has published an AI accelerator roadmap and rebranded the effort under 'SI' for 'Super Intelligence,' with the headline claims being that SI6 delivers 80x more compute performance and that Dojo 3 is 'headed to space.' The article text available here is almost entirely site navigation and membership prompts, so it contains no dates, chip specifications, pricing, availability, or named spokespeople beyond the headline and deck.
Why it matters
There is nothing here you can act on yet: no ship date, no specs beyond an '80X' multiplier, and no indication Tesla will sell or rent this compute externally. Treat SI6 as an internal Tesla training/automation roadmap until an availability and pricing detail appears — do not model inference costs or capacity plans on a vendor's own multiplier claim.
Discussion angle
How should builders read '80x more compute' claims when the baseline, workload, and timeframe are unspecified — and does it matter at all if the silicon is captive to one company's own models?
