I should add a note here to explain why Tesla is deploying partial autonomy now, rather than waiting until some point in the future. The most important reason is that, when used correctly, it is already significantly safer than a person driving by themselves and it would therefore be morally reprehensible to delay release simply for fear of bad press or some mercantile calculation of legal liability.
I like being this part of the plan. This can't be stressed enough.
He basically wants to create a fleet of users for people to own and then be summoned when they are parked at your office/house and not being used.
It's nothing earth shattering, but it's a noble cause they will make us all safer and drive down the true ownership cost of vehicles.

People who actually took the time to read this and think he won't make enough money to do it...Go take a look at Space X. They're literally launching rockets with payloads to the ISS while landing other rockets simultaneously safely on sea and on land.
They're about to reuse their first ever rocket to do this.
Once they prove the concept of reusable, safely landable rockets using either land-based landings or autonomous drone ship-landings, they will lower their cost of operating space payloads and deployment business which is already almost 50-60% cheaper than Boeing, Lockheed, their Euro competitors, etc.
No one is doing what SpaceX is doing for the cost that SpaceX is doing it.
In short, they will be the Apple, Amazon and Costco, of the space payload business. IE-their margins will be ridiculous while offering an incredibly refined service for rock bottom prices.
The ginormous, hardly describable amount of profits this business is already generating will reach a level that is such that Elon Musk could-literally-cashflow Tesla and the Hyperloop and hardly put a dent in his paycheck.
For those that don't think it can happen, it already is...It's just gonna take homeboy some time.
