Musk Says He Doesn’t Know How to Make Chips After Predicting China Could Overcome Limits in 2–3 Years

Elon Musk has said he does not know how to manufacture semiconductors, according to Wccftech. The remarks came weeks after he predicted that China could overcome chipmaking restrictions in 2–3 years.

Wccftech reports that Musk made the comments during a talk with Tesla Owners Silicon Valley. The outlet also reports that he said he might have experienced what he called “AI, or SI, psychosis” as many as 12 times this year, after watching music videos generated with the technology.

The source does not provide further detail about Musk’s comments on chip manufacturing or the experiences he described. His remarks about China’s ability to overcome chipmaking limits and his admission about his own manufacturing knowledge are separate claims reported by Wccftech.
