We won't be getting cars that drive themselves because the future is walking and bicycles. There is not the energy. The future does not involve hundreds of millions of people bringing a ton of steel everywhere with them, self driving or electric or otherwise. There simply won't be the joules. Personally I'm excited for it. The oil, natgas, and coal are rapidly running out. The shale/fracking thing is an accounting fraud on the verge of blowing up, if you happen to think that's a real answer. None of the outfits involved actually turn a real profit on energy production. Renewables are largely a scam based on government subsidy. Existing nuclear technologies are also a scam based on government liability indemnities. Also, the fissile material situation is pretty dicey going forward. The techno fantasy future is going to fade away in the coming decades and we're going to confront real resource and energy limits that change our way of life to something more resembling that of our ancestors.
