Tesla’s Dojo, schedule Techcrunch

Elon Musk does not want Tesla to be just a car manufacturer. He wants Tesla to be Amnesty International, which has discovered how to make cars lead itself.

It was very important for this task DogoA special computer specially designed by Tesla to train full self -driving nervous networks (FSD). FSD is not actually self -driving completely; It can perform some automatic driving tasks, but a person still requires vigilance behind the steering wheel. But Tesla is considering more data, more arithmetic energy and more training, can cross the threshold from self -driving almost to full self -driving.

Here, Dogo was supposed to come.

Musk Dojo disturbed years and has formed discussions about the super computer throughout 2024. But dojo has come out now, and another super computer entered called Cortex chat.

Below is a schedule for Dojo and promises. Check this explanation On what Dogo is more information about what it was, why it matters, and what comes after that.

2019

The first Dogo is mentioned

April 22 – in The day of the autonomy in TeslaThe auto industry company had the artificial intelligence team on the stage to talk about the automated pilot, the full self -driving, and the AI ​​that it works in both. The company shares information about the specially designed Tesla chips that are specially designed for nervous networks and self -driving cars.

During this event, Musk Dojo raises, reveals a super computer to train artificial intelligence. It also indicates that all Tesla cars that are produced at the time will get all the devices needed for full self -guidance and only need to update the program.

2020

Musk starts to display Dojo

February 2 – Musk He says Tesla will soon get more than a million connected cars all over the world with a required sensors and account for full self-driving-and accumulate dojo capabilities.

“Dojo, our super -training computer will be able to process huge amounts of video training data and operate the superior spacecraft efficiently with a large number of parameters, a lot of memory and the superior domain display between cores. More about this later.”

August 14 – Repeat musk The Tesla Plan for the Development of a Neurological Network Training Computer called Dojo “to tackle huge quantities of video data”, called “a monster”. It also says that the first version of Dojo is “About a year,” Which would put the date of launch somewhere in August 2021.

December 31 – Eleon says Dojo is not necessaryBut it will make self -driving better. “It is not enough to be safer than human drivers, the automated pilot must eventually be more than 10 times than human drivers.”

2021

Tesla makes Dogo responsible

August 19 – The auto industry company officially announces in The first day of artificial intelligence in TeslaAn event aimed at attracting engineers to the Tesla’s AI team. Tesla also offers its D1 chip, which the auto industry says it will use – along with the NVIDIA graphics processing unit – to operate the dojo superCant. Tesla notes Amnesty International Group that will include 3000 D1 chips.

October 12 – Tesla versions A Dojo Technology Whiteper“A guide for TESLA’s floating floating point formats.” The white paper defines a technical standard for a new type of floating dual account that is used in deep educational nervous networks and can be implemented “completely in programs, completely in devices, or in any set of programs and devices.”

2022

Tesla reveals Dogo’s progress

August 12 – Musk Tesla says.A stage in Dogo. You will not need to buy the largest possible number of additional graphics processing units next year. “

September 30 – In Tesla The second day of artificial intelligenceThe company reveals that it has installed the first Dojo cabinet, as it tests 2.2 megawatts of pregnancy test. Tesla says she was building one slab per day (which consists of 25 d1 chips). Tesla Demos Dojo on the stage that works to play a stable spread model to create an artificial intelligence of “Cybertruck on Mars”.

More importantly, the company sets a targeted date for the complete Exapod group to complete it by Q1 2023, and says it plans to build a total of seven Exapods in Palu Alto.

2023

A long bet‘

April 19 – Musk tells investors through Tesla profits in the first quarter This dojo “has the ability to improve cost size, and also” has the ability to become a serviceable service that we will provide to other companies in the same way that Amazon Web Services provides web services. “

Musk also notes that “he looks at Dojo as a kind of long bet”, but it is “a bet that deserves to be made.”

June 21 – Tesla AI X account Pillars The company’s nerve networks are already in customer vehicles. The thread includes a graphic drawing with a timetable for the current and expected Tesla account power, which sets the beginning of the production of Dojo in July 2023, although it is not clear whether this indicates D1 chips or the supercar itself. Says musk On the same day that dojo was already online and operating tasks in Tesla Data Data centers.

The company also scores that the Tesla account will be the first five places in the whole world by around February 2024 (there are no indications that this was successful) and that Tesla will reach 100 Exaflops by October 2024.

July 19 – Timing Notes In the second quarter profit report, the production of Dojo began. Musk also says that Tesla plans to spend more than one billion dollars on Dogo until 2024.

September 6 – Musk functions On x Tesla is limited to the artificial intelligence training account, but NVIDIA and Dojo will fix this. He says data management from the 160 billion video frames of Tesla cars daily is very difficult.

2024

Plan to expand its scope

January 24 – During the Tesla profit call in the fourth and entire year, Musk admits again that Dojo is a high -risk and highly rewarding project. He also says that Tesla was following the “double path for NVIDIA and Dojo”, that “Dojo works” and “performs training functions”. It is noted that Tesla is distorting it and has “plans for Dojo 1.5, Dojo 2, Dojo 3, etc.”.

January 26 – Tesla announced plans to spend $ 500 million to build A. Dojo Supermpter in Buffalo. Musk reduces somewhat investment, Publishing on x While $ 500 million is a large amount, it “is only equivalent to the H100 10K system from NVIDIA. Tesla will spend more than that on Nvidia Hardware this year. The table is no less than competition in artificial intelligence several billion dollars annually at this stage.”

April 30 – At the TSMC technology symposium in TSMC, the company says that the next generation training tiles of Dojo-D2, which puts the entire Dojo tiles on one chip of silicone, instead of connecting 25 chips to make one tile-according to what he said IEEE SICTRUM.

May 20 – Musk Notes The back of the Giga Texas factory extension will include the construction of a “large collection of superolo computers with water”.

June 4 – A CNBC report Musk reveals the conversion of thousands of NVIDIA chips for Tesla to X and Xai. After saying at the beginning that the report was a mistake, Musk publications on x Tesla had no site to send NVIDIA chips to run, due to the continued construction of the southern extension of Giga Texas, “So they would sit in a warehouse.” He pointed out that the extension will “include 50k H100s to train FSD.”

It is too Pillars:

“من بين ما يقرب من 10 دولارات في النفقات المتعلقة بالنيابة ، قلت إن Tesla ستصنع هذا العام ، حوالي النصف داخلي ، في المقام الأول جهاز كمبيوتر من الذكاء الاصطناعي المصمم Tesla وأجهزة استشعار موجودة في جميع سياراتنا ، بالإضافة إلى ذلك ، فإن My Building tes $ 3b tesla tesla tesla tesla tesla Quicel tesla tesla Tesla Tesla Quice Base BATE BATE BATE BATE BATE BASHE

July 1 – Musk reveals x The current Tesla compounds may not have the appropriate devices for the company’s artificial intelligence model. He says that the increase of approximately 5X in the number of parameters with artificial intelligence from the next generation “is very difficult to achieve without upgrading a car conclusion.”

Challenges to provide NVIDIA

July 23 – During the Tesla profit call in the second quarter, Musk says that the demand for NVIDIA devices “is very high so that it is often difficult to obtain graphics processing units.”

“I think this requires that we make more effort on Dojo in order to ensure that we have the training ability we need,” says Musk. “We see a way to compete with NVIDIA with Dojo.”

A graphic fee on the surface of the Tesla investor predicts that the Tesla Ai training capacity will descend to about 90,000 H100 from official -equivalent treatment units by the end of 2024, up from about 40,000 in June. Later that day on X, Musk functions This will this dojo 1 “about 8k H100 will be an online training equation by the end of the year.” It also publishes photo From a super computer, which seems to use the same refrigerator’s stainless steel like Tesla’s Cybletructs.

From Dogo to the shell

July 30 – AI5 is about 18 months from large size production, says Musk in A. to reply To a post from a person who claims to start a club from “Tesla Hw4/AI4 owners angry at them when AI5 comes out.”

August 3 – Musk publications on x He did a wandering in the “Tesla SuperCOCOPTE group in Giga Texas (also known as Cortex). It indicates that it will be manufactured about 100,000 H100/H200 Nvidia GPU with “tremendous video storage from FSD and Optimus.”

August 26 – Musk publications on x A video clip on Cortex, which is referred to as the new giant “Techluster Supercluster that is built in Tesla HQ in Austin to solve artificial intelligence in the real world.”

2025

Dojo stop, his team has been resolved

January 29 – Tesla’s Q4 and 2024 profit calls in the entire year It included not mentioning Dogo. However, Cortex, Tesla New Ai Traaining Supercluster in Austin Gigavakteri, did not appear. I noticed Tesla in The roof of the shareholders It has completed the spread of dandruff, which consists of about 50,000 H100 Nvidia graphics processing units.

“Cortex helped in enabling the V13 of FSD (under supervision), which features significant improvements in safety and comfort thanks to an increase of 4.2x in data, high -resolution video inputs … among other improvements,” according to the message.

During the call, CFO VAIBHAV TANEJA indicated that Tesla accelerated the creation of Cortex to accelerate the FSD V13 show. He said that the capitalist expenditures associated with Amnesty International, including infrastructure, “so far were about $ 5 billion.” In 2025, Taneja said it is expected to be flat PAPEX in terms of his behavior.

July 23 – During the Tesla Q2 2025 profit call, Musk He said Dojo 2 was expected to be “widespread” at some point in 2026, with “somewhere in a place about 100,000 H100 rewards.” At the same time, it alluded to possible repetition.

“Thinking about Dojo 3 and the AI6 inference slide, it seems intuitively, we want to try to find rapprochement there, as it is basically the same slide,” Musk said.

July 28 – Tesla signed a 16.5 billion dollars deal For AI6 chips from the next generation of Samsung. AI6 chip is a Tesla bet on a chip design that can expand from running human robots in FSD and Tesla to high -performance training in databases.

August 6 – Bloomberg reports that approximately 20 dojo workers have left to start their own company that builds artificial intelligence chips, programs and devices called density.

August 7 – Bloomberg stated that Tesla had resolved the Dogo team and closed the project. Peter Bannon left, Dogo advanced the company as well.

Musk Respond To the reports mentioned in X, saying: “It is not logical that Tesla divide its resources and expand the scope of two completely different designs of artificial intelligence chips. Tesla AI5, AI6 and subsequent potatoes will be excellent for inference and at least good for training. Every effort focuses on it.”

August 10 – “Once it became clear that all the tracks are converging with AI6, I had to stop Dojo and take some difficult employee options, as Dojo 2 is now a developed blocked path,” Spreading musk on xThe social media platform he owns. “It can be said that Dojo 3 lives in the form of a large number of AI6 (systems on the chip) on one plate.”

September 1 – Tesla shares it Main Plan Part IV On the social media platform X. There is no mention of Dojo or Cortex, although artificial intelligence, more specifically, “material AI” takes a major role.
