?Elon Musk is about to build something so big it will make the
look like a strip mall.?
?Tesla and SpaceX confirmed Thursday that Terafab, their jointly built
semiconductor megafactory, will rise in Grimes County, Texas, just
outside Houston, with a first phase price tag of $16.8 billion.?
?The finished complex is slated to top 100 million square feet, a
footprint that would blow past every structure ever built and instantly >become the largest building in the world.?
?Musk, who runs both companies, called the facility ?the largest and
most valuable building on Earth by far.??
Yup, that is definitely SciFi City. To be located just outside College >Station, Texas so they will have plenty of educated cheap labor from the
100,000+ students at Texas A&M University, my alma mater.

We'll see what happens when the locals hear of it.
An article I read some time ago was about /deep-red rural Texans/
opposing server farms who were angry with /all/ levels of State
government for ignoring them and their concerns.
Something may be going on in Texas that the Republicans (who control
the State, as I understand it, pretty much from top to bottom) may
find surprising.
But we shall see. Perhaps it will blow away.

Construction already started. And it is the world's largest chip fab. >Planning to make tens of billions of robot cpus a year.
I am not sure how many cpus each Tesla robot needs. Probably at least a >dozen.

I'd expect there to be a single system-on-chip with multiple
chiplets. The SoC will have some high-speed commodity
cores (perhaps Neoverse-V grade) and some custom logic
blocks on a chiplet alongside a capable AI inference chiplet
and perhaps a chiplet designed specifically for controlling
the physical actuators.

Must be to compensate for something...

It is very pleasing to be the centre of attention some times, as long as
it is not attention from the police nor the courts, but I can't imagine
being or wanting to be the centre of attention at all times.
Perhaps there is a sound financial reason for Tesla and SpaceX to share
a roof?
