Maybe a self driving Tesla will smash into the data center
I don't think you understand how big these data centers are. They are the size of entire cities. A Tesla crash would have the effect of a single car crash in Manhattan.
Someone needs to hack every Tesla and drive them into the nearest data centre.
That's what AI is for, get working on it!
