SuperPod Scale and Interconnect Limits

@suchenzang replied that, based on this claim, 1 SuperPod consists of 1024 chips, each offering roughly 1 PFLOPS FP8, and the maximum domain size for scale-up interconnects is 8192 chips.
The core takeaway: current system discussions have entered an ultra-large scale of "multiple SuperPods interconnects," but expansion is still limited to a finite scale-up domain.
