AI angle

AWS rents GPUs and its own Trainium chips and offers Bedrock model hosting; retail and ads are larger by revenue, so AI is concentrated in the AWS segment.

Tesla's AI exposure is its self-driving software, robotaxi plans, Optimus robot and training compute; vehicle sales still drive most revenue.
