Tesla, under pressure to show it can generate profits on its main business of making electric cars, last week trumpeted a custom-designed computer chip to let its vehicles drive themselves, a technology founder Elon Musk said would usher in the advent of driverless taxis.

Even with the new chip — which comes with all new vehicles and can be installed in older ones — Teslas still aren’t yet fully capable of driving without human intervention. They now have “all hardware necessary,” said Musk, Tesla’s chief executive. “All you have to do is improve the software.” The software will be updated over the air to allow full self driving by the end of the year, he said.
