He basically building off his work at AMD, there was an announcement about a month ago that Telsa will use Zen chips for their self driving cars, surprise surprise. Who would have thought the guy that was lead the effort to design Zen has opted to use those chips in his new project at a another company.

Even if he hadn't helped in their design, it's a great chip for the massively parallel computing needed for smart cars.

The fact that (vs Intel) using it knocks $500+ off the price of the car (that's a couple percent of the model 3 selling price) and uses less power under typical loads makes it an even better proposition.

Better not drive fast on the same roads over and over, the car might crash!
