Tesla's wafer-sized Dojo processor is in production – 25 chips combined into one


Wafer-scale processors gain traction.

One of the less-noticed tidbits from last week's TSMC North American Technology Symposium was announcement that Tesla's Dojo system-on-wafer processor for AI training is now in mass production and is on track to be deployed shortly. Since the Tesla Dojo Training Tile essentially packs 25 ultra-high-performance processors, it is exceptionally power hungry and requires a sophisticated cooling system.
