@jeremy_list@hachyderm.io @sjvn@mastodon.social The topic is hype, not theoretical utility. 🙂 I remember (~7 years ago?) when techies had fever dreams about human drivers being banned in cities so that networked cars could zip and weave through intersections without stopping, a car could pay for itself with robotaxi mode, uber could be profitable, all definitely happening within "just a few years". The amount of hand waving could have powered a wind farm.

@jmwolf@mastodon.social @technicat@universeodon.com @neuralex@neurodifferent.me I just check the little box that tells my Mac to always show scroll bars. 🤷‍♂️

@sjvn@mastodon.social @jeremy_list@hachyderm.io Our societal over-dependence on cars would still be terrible even if they were all electric and self driving. These trends are just corporations chasing money.

@sjvn@mastodon.social Are self-driving cars closer to metaverse or to nft?
