That's an interesting question. Does Tesla have access to the computing power of its fleet of vehicles, when they aren't driving, so that the customers are paying to build elon a supercomputer? Or are those cycles just going to waste? can a tesla run seti or other distributed software?

Also, how much of the cost of the car is the computers and software? I'll be interested to see if the model 3 gets cheaper over time, or stays at the current level to keep funding other projects. If you think of it as a large mobile computer, moore's law applies.
