The articles premise is that Durant was prescient enough to turn his horse carriage company into a car company because he knew it was the future.... Then the author tries to make a parallel with cars propelled by gas vs electricity. It's not really a perfect parallel. Don't get me wrong, I'm massively rooting for Elon and Tesla. But it seems to be that the original success of GM was because they were in an industry building things that were 1000x better than the old way of doing things. Tesla doesn't seem to be 1000x... Maybe 10x... Until they have fully self driving cars. So my conclusion is that the electrical car aspect of Tesla is not really the game changer... It's the AI which we have yet to prove out...
