"Elon Musk has said that Tesla’s value is significantly dependant on whether it can develop self-driving technology, otherwise the company is 'worth basically zero'...The billionaire said that he wanted to fix a number of problems with Tesla vehicles...but that the 'overwhelming focus is on solving full self-driving'...Musk added that the feature was 'essential. It’s really the difference between Tesla being worth a lot of money or worth basically zero.'"
