Tesla Announces New AI4+ FSD Computer With More Memory and Compute
* Tesla is developing an interim HW4.1 (AI4+) FSD computer that arrives before AI5. * Memory doubles from 16GB → 32GB per SoC (64GB total), removing a major bottleneck for larger end‑to‑end neural nets. * Hardware also gains \~10% more compute and \~10% more memory bandwidth, improving camera→network throughput and reaction time. * Production begins mid‑2027, with Samsung handling board redesign and manufacturing. * No retrofit path is expected for current HW4 owners due to soldered RAM and Tesla’s historical approach to mid‑cycle hardware refreshes. #cars
