But the drive is to keep growing at an explosive rate, and once markets become established the only way to do that is to expand by diversifying. Which is great if there are legitimate opportunities available. But instead they are squandering billions on crap like autonomous cars, and this BS.
And the drive to fund this from their core business means they are being undercut by their competitors.
There is a reason why big companies Google, Amazon, apple and car makers etc are trying to build autonomous cars, it's a trillion dollar industry.

Amazon and Space X are fighting it out for space now.
