"Tesla's solution for staying ahead in the future is to focus on autonomous vehicles...It involves gathering colossal amounts of video footage from millions of its electric cars worldwide...with the goal of making Teslas drive like humans.

"The system at this complex is called Cortex, a "supercomputer cluster"...for video training of the Optimus humanoid robots and the Full-Self Driving (FSD) system...the Texas supercomputer will apparently require 500 megawatts of power in the future."
