Weird happenings. I wonder if this is Tesla playing shenanigans to get a better deal from NVidia. Doubtful, but this story is very strange. The only other thing I can think of is that it would be targeted at market manipulation of some sort, seeing that AMD stock price reacted favourably, as expected.
Musk is 100% pro vertical integration, its make 100% sense based off everything else he has done. The rumor got traction because it makes a large amount of sense, AMD has said it wants to generate revenue direct from its IP stack. Developing car AI chips from scratch would both be an infringement nightmare and have a long time to rollout let alone ROI. A deal like that for tesla would allow for them to control there own development while reducing time to market and risk.
Welcome to the world of AMD stock P&D mill.
