So bear with me on this...
Tesla has their inference chip in the cars, and the AI hardware is going to continue improving.
A couple interations from now, it's actually going to be pretty powerful, and it has it's own cooling hardware and power supply.
It actually might make sense in the future to use this distrubuted power and cooling and do distrubuted inference. Pay the owner for time used.
Maybe it'll work, maybe it won't.
Now... the insane part is, Elon once referred to it as (paraphrased) well, the car is going to have all this compute, and it's just sitting there doing nothing at home. It's going to get bored, and we don't want that, we need to keep it engaged.
As it it was actually fucking sentient. Like fuck the right off.
