> Autonomous vehicles and flying cars will redefine human travel
The flying cars were supposed to happen 20 years ago. Even if the tech would be possible, their massive energy consumption and loud noise would severely limit them to a small elite being able to afford using them (like helicopters really).
We're not going to a world with cheap and abundant energy, quite the opposite actually.
The article reads like the dreams of the author, not something based on reality.
- deepnotderp 6y agoThat's entirely unclear though, flying cars would be able to avoid many energy wasting things with normal cars like not taking a direct route to the destination and n having to stop at traffic lights.
- jmnicolas 6y agoYeah but all this is compensated by having to float in the air.
