CTOnews.com Sept. 27, Tesla 2022 AI Day event will be held in Palo Alto, California, on September 30, 2022 North American time (estimated Beijing time, October 1). At that time, science fiction will be photographed into reality and Tesla Bot is expected to make its debut. In addition, the latest developments of Tesla's autopilot technology and Dojo supercomputer may also be announced on the same day.

Looking back at the AI Day event on August 20 last year, the release of Tesla Bot was a big egg. Tesla said that it is 1.72m tall and weighs 56.6kg. The screen on its face can display information, has human-level hands, and has powerful feedback to achieve balance and agile movements.

In an article published in China Cyber letter magazine not long ago, Musk wrote: "the initial positioning of Tesla robot is to replace people in repetitive, boring and dangerous work. But the long-term goal is to make it serve thousands of families, such as cooking, mowing lawns, taking care of the elderly and so on."

"the Tesla robot is close to an adult in height and weight, can carry heavy objects or carry heavy objects by hand, and can walk quickly with small steps, and the screen on its face is an interactive interface for communicating with people," Musk said. "you may wonder, why are we designing this robot with legs? Because human society is based on the interaction of bipedal humanoids with two arms and ten fingers. Therefore, if we want a robot to adapt to the environment and do what humans do, it has to have roughly the same size, shape and ability as humans. "

"after that, as the scale of production increases and the cost falls, the practicality of humanoid robots will increase year by year," Musk said. in the future, a household robot may be cheaper than a car. maybe in less than a decade, people can buy a robot for their parents as a birthday present. "

In order to achieve the ultra-high computing power of artificial intelligence training, while expanding bandwidth, reducing delay and saving cost, Tesla built the Dojo supercomputer. The single training module of the Dojo supercomputer consists of 25 neural network training chips-D1 chips independently developed by Tesla. As each D1 chip is seamlessly connected together, the delay between adjacent chips is extremely low, the training module achieves the maximum bandwidth reservation, with Tesla's self-created high-bandwidth, low-delay connector; in less than 1 cubic foot of volume, the computing power is as high as 9PFLOPs (9 trillion times), and the I / O bandwidth is as high as 36TB / s.

Thanks to the independent operation ability and unlimited link ability of the training module, the performance expansion of the Dojo supercomputer composed of it has no upper limit in theory. In practical application, Tesla will assemble ExaPOD with 120 training modules, which is the world's leading artificial intelligence training computer. Compared with other products in the industry, its performance is improved by 4 times at the same cost, 1.3 times at the same energy consumption, and 5 times less space.

A year later, what did the Dojo supercomputer do for Tesla? What kind of upgrade will Tesla bring to it? Perhaps the answer can be found at this AI Day event.

Since the launch of the Dojo supercomputer last year, the development of Tesla's FSD (fully autopilot capability) has continued to accelerate. At this year's shareholders' meeting, Musk revealed that research on FSD version 10.13 had been going on for some time and that Tesla had made "some very important architectural improvements", such as improving complex issues when turning left. He said that Tesla is currently widely deploying the FSD Beta version in North America and will start a large-scale test of the fully self-driving capability (FSD) software this year. The cumulative mileage of the test software has exceeded 4000 miles and is expected to exceed 100 million miles by the end of the year. On September 30, North American time, we may be informed of the latest developments in FSD.

CTOnews.com learned that Musk said at last year's AI Day event: "what we are trying at Tesla is to create artificial intelligence that people like and useful... and there is no doubt that this will be good artificial intelligence." On September 30 this year, we might as well look forward to taking Tesla Bot as the highlight.
