The article is supposed to predict the future but is flawed. The first part is how electric vehicles will make everything different, because electric is the future. So exhausts, batteries, and others are a thing of the past because of electric vehicles. No mention of hydrogen cars, or cleaner regular gas powered cars.
Then there is negating their own predictions with a prediction. You don't need mirrors because cameras are so common, and then you don't need cameras because the car will drive itself.
There is also a push for phones being the controller of the car. No keys, just a phone. Adjust everything by phone. Then they say the phone won't connect directly to the car because it's wireless charging.
There are some cool ideas, but the prediction is bad.
What are bad predictions you've seen? What are your predictions?
I liked the episode where Siskos dad sees his business boom because most starfleet folks want a hot and actually cooked meal.
Even Nog.
That episode was also an interesting thought about Covid and how people responded.
People who give in so easily get what they fucking deserve.
I like how replicated food was portrayed in TNG. Essentially, replicated food isn't bad. It's just incredibly consistent. Every slice of pepperoni pizza tastes exactly the same, every chocolate sundae, every raktajino, etc. That's why a home cooked, or restaurant-cooked meal is such a treat. It's different.
That's kind of how I expect it as well. The computer only knows this, and any way outside of it may be dangerous.
Not to be pedantic, but if your computer can replicate both a sundae and a pizza... surely it could also slightly vary the flavours in the pizza to make different batches unique.
Do you really want ice cream pizza?
