So you could contend that Tesla is a battery company or a car company feasibly. Nobody ahead of the AI bubble would have mentioned Tesla and artificial intelligence in the same category.
Nobody really thought of AI as an independently marketable product before the AI bubble though. And many “AI companies” now have some kind of hardware product they are attaching their AI offering to. I’d circle back to the Apple example. They are a tech company and a phone company, but they also have Siri. That probably required a significant amount of R&D behind the scenes. Maybe we wouldn’t call them an AI company in the same sense as OpenAI, but they’ve probably been selling an AI assistant as a prominent feature in their products for longer than OpenAI has been selling ChatGPT.
Besides, if it’s what he makes money selling Tesla is a tax credit company.
Lol that’s funny. I’d wholeheartedly agree with that assessment. But in my mind it’s more about where the operating budget goes, not where the revenue comes from.
