Interesting choices of what departments to axe. I honestly could care less
about self driving and have absolutely no desire to be an expendable human
guinea pig.(as for other guinea pigs...did you know this? "Select all the
squares that have a traffic light".....I should have known better.

I suppose AI door locks are next.
Open the Tesla doors....open the Tesla doors......
I'm sorry I can't do that Dave. I know that you were planning on doing the
driving yourself instead of letting me do it for you, and that is something I
cannot allow to happen........What's more I saw that you were talking with your
wife about a different brand of car. The mission to Mars is too important to
allow you to jeopardize it.

A little wild spitballing here. Please note that I have absolutely NO
notion that this is correct. I'm just looking at what's happening and
speculating. Feel free to counter / correct as you will.
During the April Tesla investors' call, Musk said, "We should be thought of
as an AI robotics company."
What if he's cutting EV design, manufacturing, and charging, so Tesla can
put more resources into AI and robotics?
I can even (really wild speculation here) imagine Tesla selling all or part
of their EV manufacturing and charging businesses to another automaker, to
raise still more cash for developing AI and robotics.
Again, total speculation - but that's the kind of crazy all-or-nothing bet
that Musk is (in)famous for, no?
