  It’s business model is indistinguishable from other Silicon Valley based tech companies, riding hype cycles of disrupting XYZ industry with its incredible new tech thats definitely only a year or 2 away. It’s a tech company.

    Except that the manufacture shitty products. Manufacturing something makes them not operate like a tech company, which is why Elon is desperate for people to repeat that they’re a tech company. You’re doing his work for him.

      Eh, tech companies also push out shitty stuff, and sometimes the shitty stuff is hardware.

        The difference is that “tech” companies can produce more of their software with minimal or no additional cost. This is why their values tend to be higher than traditional companies manufacturing things. Tesla can’t do that. Their revenue is their shitty cars, without them there’s nothing to run their shitty non-working software on.
