Not yet. That is the nature of technological R&D - if we had the answers, we wouldn't be doing R&D.
AI before the last decade or so didn't beat other computer technologies in key metrics; should they have stopped developing it? Fusion power doesn't beat fission and other options in key metrics; solar didn't beat other sources in key metrics, including costs, ... - should humanity have stopped developing those things?
- philjohn 2y agoToyota have been researching hydrogen cars since the early 90's. Unless you can find a way to double their efficiency, and also get hydrogen down to close to 1:1 energy input to output it's just not an efficienct use of electricity.
- mmooss 2y agoEVs were researched for decades before they came to fruition. That's the nature of research.
