I honestly think Tesla's car division, as it becomes less and less relevant in a world where there are now so many good EV options that are cheaper and better will end up being bought out, most likely by one of the big Chinese EV makers, possibly as soon as 5 years from now. It'll end up like Volvo and MG - just another Chinese brand being marketed to the west under a name most people associate with (in this case) the USA.
As for their FSD tech, it's already well surpassed by other companies, and with Elon's refusal to include anything beyond basic cameras, it'll never achieve anything past level 2 - so is worthless beyond the marketing nonsense - and the Optimus android is just nonsense that will never be a properly marketable product. The only thing left is their home power division, which again - that area is getting extremely competitive now, and though I've not researched it, it does seem like you can get similar systems from other manufacturers for less money.
Really it seems to me that it's likely the actual founders of Tesla had a 10 year business plan that Elon more or less followed successfully - and then everything he's tried to come up with himself has ended in failure, because he's actually a bit thick - but he is good at lying - which has got him through another 10 years.
