Tesla’s vision, however, is more akin to creating an application ecosystem—developing AI in the context of real-world tasks, aiming to generate a market for AI-powered robots, autonomous driving, and industrial automation. Musk envisions Tesla’s AI as a foundation for applications that could unlock enormous value sectors, paralleling the success of platform companies but targeting the physical, tangible world.
