Elon Musk came up with a pretty incredible idea during the Q3 Earnings Call, that no one is really talking about. His words: “Actually, one of the things I thought, if we've got all these cars that maybe are bored, while they're sort of, if they are bored, we could actually have a giant distributed inference fleet and say, if they're not actively driving, let's just have a giant distributed inference fleet. At some point, if you've got tens of millions of cars in the fleet, or maybe at some point 100 million cars in the fleet, and let's say they had at that point, I don't know, a kilowatt of inference capability, of high-performance inference capability, that's 100 gigawatts of inference distributed with power and cooling taken, with cooling and power conversion taken care of. That seems like a pretty significant asset.” So basically, each car has ~1 kilowatt of high-performance AI inference capability, Tesla wouldn’t need to build giant data centers — the fleet is the data center. Tesla could turn their entire fleet into a giant distributed inference network, spread across the world, powered by the batteries and AI in the car already. Mind blown.

Happy 1 year anniversary to the little album that could 💖 Thanks so much to everyone who supported this project Unfortunately I couldn't do much post-release promo because I had an interview for a very competitive job, but it means so much that people enjoyed this project 🥹
