At Tesla&#8217;s Q4 2025 earnings call, he warned investors that external chip capacity from TSMC, Samsung, and Micron would hit a ceiling within three to four years. &#8220;We&#8217;re very grateful to our existing supply chain, to Samsung, TSMC, Micron and others,&#8221; Musk acknowledged at the Terafab event, &#8220;but there&#8217;s a maximum rate at which they&#8217;re comfortable expanding.&#8221; Building in-house was, in his framing, not a strategic option, but a necessity.<\/p>\n<p>The space angle is where the announcement becomes genuinely unprecedented. Musk said 80% of Terafab&#8217;s compute output would be directed toward space-based orbital AI satellites, arguing that solar irradiance in space is roughly 5x greater than at Earth&#8217;s surface, and that heat rejection in vacuum makes thermal scaling viable. This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teslarati.com\/will-tesla-join-fold-predicting-triple-merger-spacex-xai\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">directly feeds the SpaceXAI vision<\/a>, which is betting that within two to three years, running AI workloads in orbit will be cheaper than doing so on the ground. The satellites, powered by constant solar energy, would effectively turn low Earth orbit into the world&#8217;s largest data center.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"jSRlsYq1PN\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.teslarati.com\/will-tesla-join-fold-predicting-triple-merger-spacex-xai\/\">Will Tesla join the fold?
