option, sure

Depends on the life style

We might all have drones to zip around in

farmers cant use that shit, ppl who work and stuff

Farming can be automated

Authoritarians want to Force onto others.

Farmers use drones today for many things

humans can be cloned too, should we?

Farm equipment practically drives itself now.

It hardly takes any manpower on most farms.

You could operate a farm from your living room

ur talking megafarms sure, different for the family farm

Or just let AI do it

Homesteads would be a hobby

Not for major production of necessary goods

How is the energy produced that powers EVs.

not in this lifetime

Most things thought of today won’t come to fruition in our life times

That's evasive...

But there will be leaps in manufacturing where one could take a idea straight from their mind to a physical object with 3D printing

Or test it out with AI

Everything is better in the conceptual phase.

@busillis energy production long term would achieve neutrality , plus we will shift back to nuclear anyways

Before 2016 the next youngest reactor is 40 years old.

We will make new ones

We will harness the waves and winds more efficiently

Use geo thermal energy

tidal/wind/solar is the future

and thermal yeah

Solar is still viable

James is not thinking more broadly about resource allocation and war, sadly.

Unless cars become solar, resources are much more limited than petroleum. But if I were Exxon I would definitely be investing in a large team to figure that out before anyone else

theres already war with china and globalism, its just baby steps, frog in the pot long term low intensity war

If California can't deliver power to homes without blackouts and other issues, how will they be able to supply power to automobiles without a serious system upgrade?

This isn't even mentioning the fact that when cars run on electricity it's going to electricity dramatically is more demand will be put on the system.

every home should be self reliant, its silly

Are you smoking crack...

Do you know how many solar cells it takes to charge a Tesla.
