According to a study by car and van leasing business Vanarama, Teslas will be more intelligent than humans by 2033, with the current D1 microprocessor capable of managing 362 trillion operations per second.
By 2033, Tesla's new microchip—whose processing power is already 36% that of the human brain—will be "more intelligent" than humans.
According to a study by car and van leasing business Vanarama, the D1 microprocessor can manage 362 trillion operations per second, whereas a human brain can process one quadrillion operations per second (that's one followed by 15 zeros).
The company's forecast was based on an analysis of previous and current Tesla microchips, which revealed that their potential is growing at an astounding pace of 486% every year.
The new D1 processor, which is a component of Elon Musk's Dojo supercomputer platform, will be made available this year. According to Vanarama, it will play a crucial role in the company's evolving Autopilot self-driving syst...
