Read previewElon Musk is barrelling full steam ahead on Dojo — Tesla's supercomputer project and attempt at competing with AI chip superstar Nvidia.
Musk acknowledged he is "quite concerned" about Tesla's inability to access the top-tier Nvidia graphics processing units, or GPUs, because of skyrocketing demand for microprocessors within the tech sector.
"We do see a path to being competitive with Nvidia with Dojo," Musk said.
While the tech company has only become a household name in the last year, Nvidia has been working on its signature chips for years.
"We've really got to make Dojo work," Musk said during the call.
