Elon Musk’s sleight of hand

Pretty darn good insight in Tesla’s recent Model X announcement:

[W]hen I pull these five things together I don’t see features that are being built or added because they are “fun” […]

No. None of these features have anything to do with building conveniences for humans too lazy to open doors with their hands […]

All of these feature were built for one reason — a self driving future combined with an entire self-driving mobility platform. The Model X was built to be either the ultimate self-driving taxi, or the ultimate human/self-driving rental car — or both.

Connecting. The. Dots.
