I got a newsletter from Inside Automotive with this paragraph:
Samsung is reportedly building an autonomous driving chip that will be used by Tesla. The electronics company has aggressively been hiring software engineers that specialize in autonomous driving technologies, as it reportedly starts mass production of system-on-chips for Tesla’s Model 3’s autonomous driving features. The production of a self-driving chip by Samsung is interesting, considering previous reports saying Tesla was planning to vertically integrate its autonomous driving capabilities and build its own self-driving chip. Samsung has denied the creation of a new business unit dedicated for self-driving cars. — KOREA HERALD
Here is the line from the Korea Herald article:
"Samsung is reportedly on track to start mass production of system-on-chips for Tesla’s Model 3 slated to be launched in March."
Samsung scouting talents for autonomous driving
So is Tesla ditching their in-house "AP3" chip and going with a chip from Samsung or is Samsung just going to produce the regular autopilot chip and Tesla is still going to make their in house chip for FSD?
Thoughts?
