马斯克称特斯拉AI5接近设计完成，AI6已开始研发

Core Viewpoint - There are contradictions in Elon Musk's statements regarding the completion of the AI5 chip design, which may impact Tesla's upcoming vehicle lineup [1][2] Group 1: Chip Development Timeline - Musk claimed that the AI5 chip design was "completed" last July, but typically, chip design completion requires several months for tape-out and additional time for validation and testing before mass production [1] - If the AI5 chip is not expected to enter mass production until mid-2027, the Cybercab, planned for release in 2026, will have to rely on the current generation AI4 chip [1] Group 2: Industry Standards and Expectations - Musk's proposed "9-month design cycle" for the AI5 chip is unprecedented in the semiconductor industry, where companies like Apple typically plan and design chips years in advance [2] - Caution is advised regarding Musk's optimistic estimates, as previous claims about the HW3 achieving "full self-driving" have not materialized, with millions of Tesla vehicles still unable to achieve true unsupervised autonomous driving [2]
