Musk at Davos: China Holds the Key to Powering an AI Future as Tesla Counts Down to FSD and Optimus Sales
At Davos, Elon Musk argued that electricity — not chips — will be the binding constraint on large-scale AI and robot deployment, praising China’s massive solar build-out as the practical remedy. He set aggressive timelines for RoboTaxis, FSD regulatory approvals in Europe and China, Optimus humanoid sales by late 2027, and space-based AI data centres enabled by fully reusable Starship launches.
Musk Hints Tesla Will Try Selling Humanoid Robot to Consumers by End of Next Year — But Timetables and Technical Hurdles Persist
At Davos, Elon Musk said Tesla may start selling its humanoid robot Optimus to consumers by the end of next year, while predicting more complex capabilities by the end of 2026. The remarks sharpen an ambitious timetable but leave open significant technical, production and regulatory questions; early deployments are likely to target controlled industrial settings before any mass consumer rollout.
Elon Musk to Join BlackRock’s Larry Fink at Davos — A High‑Stakes Conversation Between Tech’s Disruptor and Institutional Capital
Elon Musk will appear at the World Economic Forum in Davos on 22 January for a public conversation with BlackRock CEO Larry Fink. The pairing brings together a leading tech entrepreneur and the head of the world’s largest asset manager, offering signals about how innovation, investment and policy might align on AI, electrification and corporate governance.
China’s Electric-Car Moment: From Subsidy Reliance to a Naked Competition for Tech, Range and Loyalty
China’s electric‑vehicle market crossed a critical threshold in 2025, with EV penetration topping 50 percent and charging and swapping infrastructure expanding rapidly. As subsidies taper in 2026, competition will pivot from market share driven by policy to product, software and service quality—making tech depth, cost control and ecosystem play decisive factors.
Musk Doubles Down on Optimus: Tesla’s Bid to Become a Robot Company — Hype or Strategic Pivot?
Elon Musk says Tesla is “very likely” to evolve into a robotics company centred on the Optimus humanoid, asserting the business could dwarf Tesla’s current automotive operations. The claim follows weak global car sales and regulatory pressure on Tesla’s driving software, but turning a prototype humanoid into a mass‑market product faces steep technical, economic and regulatory hurdles.
Musk’s Nine‑Month Chip Gamble: Tesla’s Bid to Outiterate Nvidia — and Take AI to Space
Elon Musk has unveiled an aggressive multi‑year AI chip roadmap that pledges a new Tesla chip generation every nine months, from AI5 for cars to an eventual space‑deployed AI7. The plan leverages Tesla’s vertical integration and fleet data but faces steep fabrication, validation and regulatory hurdles that make timely delivery uncertain.
China’s Electric-Car Arms Race: From Subsidy Reliance to a Raw, Tech-Driven Market in 2026
China’s electric-vehicle market reached mass adoption in 2025, with penetration approaching 60% and charging and swap networks expanding rapidly. As purchase-tax subsidies are rolled back in 2026, competition will pivot from stimulus-fuelled growth to a fight over technology, cost efficiency, user experience and global expansion.
Musk Revives Dojo 3 to Power Tesla’s Push into Full Self‑Driving and Robots
Elon Musk has ordered the restart of Tesla’s Dojo supercomputer project after completing the AI5 chip design, pivoting to a Dojo 3 architecture that densely integrates hundreds of AI5/AI6 chips per board. The reboot aims to cut training costs and support Tesla’s Full Self‑Driving and Optimus robot programmes, but it faces major technical, supply‑chain and competitive challenges.
