They keep calling it public transportation, but say it will be funded by the boring company?

So is it going to be publicly owned and privately operated?

Oxford at least defines public transportation as that which is merely accessible by the public that runs on fixed routes. There is certainly oodles of public transportation throughout the world which is privately funded and owned.
By that definition, airlines are public transportation.
It's just dumb vaporware and it's going nowhere.
