Gate News message, April 20 — Samsung Electronics will hold an equipment installation ceremony on April 24 at its Taylor foundry in Texas as the facility nears operations to manufacture Tesla AI chips using its 2-nanometer process technology.
Samsung broke ground on the $17 billion fab in November 2022 but delayed its planned October 2024 launch after struggling to secure orders. The company accelerated preparations after winning a $16.5 billion contract with Tesla in July 2025 to produce AI5 and AI6 chips for self-driving systems.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk confirmed on April 15 that AI5 has been taped out, meaning the chip design is complete and ready for mass production.
