Gaming. In the car. 😐
There already are games in the vehicle. They're just all pretty lightweight. The newer GPUs have a lot more power for the newer Autopilot and FSD processing.
They can only be used while parked, and help kill time when waiting for people or while charging if you are on a slower charger or have a longer charge time between segments.
This clears things up. I imagined gaming occurring while driving which is a problem for obvious crazy and ethical reasons. Silly me.
What throws me off now is the apparent waiting that occurs. I'm interested in EVs, but I didn't imagine the amount waiting. I presumed this was only for road trips. But... based on the comments I've seen... people just seem to spend a lot of time waiting in their cars for all sorts of reasons? The kind of waiting where gaming apparently makes sense? 🤷🏽♂️
Waiting when picking someone up, waiting when charging, waiting because you couldn’t go inside with them (at least during Covid), waiting because they had to use the bathroom and tou don’t know how long it’s gonna take, waiting for an employee to bring you stuff (“curbside” pickup), waiting because you had to show up early in order to get a parking spot but the place isn’t open, lots of things
