Here’s how it works…you stop selling car tires to the public, and you use the tires to boil water to run turbines and power AI.
Predictably, the tires would become very expensive for everyone. Some rubber manufacturers in other countries would see this higher price and relentless demand as a way to entry the market. Meanwhile the consumer would pay thru the nose for every tire set. Deliveries would become Uber expensive (pun intended). Suddenly, people would stop being able to afford the cost of tires so they would use public transportation which may include trams with no tires, just metal wheels. A few years pass and the car industry collapses due to having mo option for tires. Other parts of the car start becoming expensive too like paints, vinyl etc…all re-routed to power up the AI turbines.
A decade later nobody drives. We just wait for the tram and take delivery via lorry or drone drop. Blimps become a thing. Trains resurge. China looks into developing their own tires. But too late, ten new generations of kids going thru grade school have now grown up without ever riding a car or knowing what convenient and polluting it was.
Now, China has to again teach people how cool it would be to own your own car. Nobody is familiar with the concept anymore and most become skeptical. The older generation is thought to be too old to matter so our voice goes right into the wall. The kids meanwhile learn how to ask questions to AI to solve math problems…like “you’re a math expert, what is 4 times 4?”
“you’re a math expert, what is 4 times 5?”
“you’re a math expert, what is 4 times 6?”
Etc.
One day a kid stands up and asks “what’s a math expert?”. The teacher confidently replies “chatGPT”, what’s a math expert? Chatgpt already knows the answer, a math expert is how you would ask an AI a math question! Of course!
Car makers would ask car making questions but always get rerouted to trains. Heck even murderers would forget how to properly murder someone. They would as something like “I don’t like PePe over there and would like them to stop existing, is there anyway you could make them not exist anymore?”. Runners would ask “I want to be able to move faster than walking, is there a way to do that without a vehicle?”
No one would be around to help people recall how to do things. The world would be good in a few generations… that’s when chatGPT stops working altogether and no one knows where even it lives.
Hey. I got an idea!!! AI powered by car tires!

That’s at least less bloody than killing trees.
