Elon Musk Agrees With Cathie Wood: Tesla Is 'Largest AI Project On Earth' Amid Robotaxi Vision

ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood called Tesla the world’s most ambitious AI project, according to an interview on The Diary of a CEO podcast. Wood predicted that Tesla's autonomous taxi efforts could generate up to $10 trillion globally within a decade. Elon Musk agreed, reposting the quote on X with a simple, "True." Tesla’s long-term AI strategy continues to draw investor attention despite a 12% revenue drop in the second quarter. A new $16.5 billion deal with Samsung to produce its AI6 chip will support Tesla’s robotaxi and Optimus bot programs. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives estimates Tesla’s AI and autonomy segment could be worth $1 trillion, strengthening optimism around Musk’s bold vision.
