Not really. Musk was making this argument. But literally non of the smart analysts that do detailed models of Tesla ever put this in an investment model. People who don't actually follow Tesla often only hear Elon and a few Tesla superfans and hardcore Tesla haters. In reality there is a lot of space in the middle that is up for debate. Tesla stock was flying high, stories about self driving were part of that. But it was also a time when all EV companies were way overestimated. In general, many Tesla were actually sold as appropriating assets. During the supply crisis some used Tesla actual out-priced new ones. But that wasn't based on self-driving.
