Musk pitched in an idea for Tesla to make an AI vision device that could make traffic lights smarter by simply monitoring the traffic. 

Why It Matters: The world’s most valuable car company has been betting big on artificial intelligence, deploying it to develop an advanced driver-assistance feature that will make its electric cars fully autonomous.

Musk last year told investors at Tesla’s AI Day that it plans to build a humanoid robot that would draw on some of its EV technology.

Price Action: Tesla shares closed 0.12% higher at $838.3 a share on Friday.
