SpaceX aims for in-house GPU, warns investors about chip supply and cost issues

Golden Ten Data, April 23 – According to Reuters, SpaceX may be tackling one of the biggest challenges in the chip business: manufacturing key components that power artificial intelligence, namely graphics processing units (GPUs). Ahead of SpaceX's anticipated $1.75 trillion initial public offering (IPO) this summer, the company has warned potential investors about its plans for significant spending on the development of AI and other technologies. According to excerpts from its S-1 registration reviewed by Reuters, the company listed "manufacturing our own GPUs" as one of its ongoing "significant capital expenditures." The company filed this document with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to disclose its risks and financial status ahead of going public.
