Okay, I looked up the hardware for AlphaGo. It is usually run on pretty hefty computers, 48+ CPUs. The hardware used for this match was 1,920 CPUs and about 280 GPUs.

So today you couldn't fit AlphaGo (that's the name of the Deep Mind AI software) in an F1 car. But in a decade or two . . .

After all, today's self driving cars don't have racks of supercomputers in the trunk. And presumably the Deep Mind designers aren't (yet) trying to reduce resources consumed.
