Currently reading news and communicating with people around the world from the privacy of my toilet using my hand terminal. It can also understand what I am saying and excecute my spoken commands (to some extent at least). That’s some Sci fi shit right there. Pun intended
I don’t want flying cars because I don’t want 95% of the people around me to be driving regular cars. Can’t even use a turn signal and now they have carte blanche to drive over houses and shit?
The answer is mass transit. Mag-rail, not personal aviation.
I think VR + generative AI is a clear pathway to Star Trek’s holodecks. Imagine being able to just say “I want to play a game I’ve never played before, in an Amazonian rainforest”, and then the AI renders the game and environment for you in VR. We’re genuinely very close to that reality.

It’s seriously insane growing up on star trek and then seeing it come to life.
Still holding out for flying cars.
And warp drive!

Yeah, motherfuckers can’t even drive in two dimensions. Adding a third would be a clusterfuck of galactic proportions.
I’m waiting for the post-scarcity stuff 😭
The post-scarcity utopia only happens after the Eugenics Wars and that whole Khan thing, mind you…
Unfortunately the limiting factor on flying cars is the drivers. And the limiting factor on warp drive is the science not turning out to be a scam.
I could see AI at least solving the former.
I’d take a jump drive, if warp isn’t available.
I mean flying cars are basically just helicopters.

Nice. Let’s use it for shit posting and spreading misinformation
Porn, don’t forget porn. So much porn
Same is true for the printing press.
When will people understand that our tools are not the problem? It’s us!
Well played, sir/madam. Well, played.
Your toilet understands you? Sweet
Emotionally? No. Linguistically, sure.
