SpaceX may be facing one of the biggest challenges in the chip business: manufacturing key components that power artificial intelligence, namely graphics processors. Before SpaceX's expected $175 billion IPO this summer, the company has warned potential investors of its significant spending plans on developing artificial intelligence and other technologies. According to excerpts from its S-1 registration filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the company lists "manufacturing our own GPU" as one of its "significant capital expenditures" in progress. The company submitted this document to the SEC to disclose its risks and financial condition before going public. SpaceX did not immediately respond to a request for comment, and the scale of expected spending could not be determined.
