Flying Cars

I know many, many people want flying cars to be a real thing. But, what is always going to prevent us from having true flying cars is, look at how people normally are with the cars on the ground. Drunk driving is tenfold going to be worse with flying cars, people are going to totally fly their vehicles into buildings, for sure. I think the closest we’re going to get to flying cars, is the hover cars we see in Back to the Future II that are more ground level, but hover. Even then, I don’t know if we’re ever going to be ready for them.

True AI

What I mean with True AI is an AI that can actually be a little more sentient and living than what we got now. When AI first rolled out, it really put a damper on everyone in so many ways that I don’t think we’re ever going to see it. There’s just too much at stake to trust an AI with the capability to think on its own and do things on its own. We’re just going to be stuck with Semi-AI that only talk back to you in text form and maybe help you code. And that alone already has ruffled the feathers of millions who are hating AI which is another thing to consider.

    Well see here little buddy, back in the 1980s you’d get this little cardboard circle with a variety of characters on it, and there was this whole game around building a tower and knocking these circles off the tower, but no one played the game. Hell most people refuse to believe a game with them existed. They were going to be the next big collectible before Pokemon brought back trading cards and beanie babies took over for anyone that didn’t like cards.

    Some pogs were also metal. For some reason.

    Years later a weird asian man made a face and coincidentally got pog brought in the the common vernacular, but that’s a different pog entirely, a pretender to the throne. Every day I lament that that asian man made that silly face, if only because it has obscured to the true nature of the pog.
