Self driving is currently a meme, but at a certain point we might see it work out if governments design roads to be compatible with safe self driving.
Eventually there will be nothing to innovate. We would have figured out the perfect way to transport ourselves from one place to another, and we will eventually have perfect computers that don't break and don't become obsolete. We are far from both, and we keep progressing.
In computing we see chips that use less energy and compute much more. The Samsung tablet I am using right now has more computing power than the desktop computer I had in 2003. This tablet doesn't need a fan, has one of the best pen integrations on the market, and can be charged in a low voltage charger in a bus or my car.
My shitty 2017 Suzuki econobox is safer and more comfortable to drive (less back pain, less sweat, less sore legs, better steering) than the early 90s BMW we had. There is progress. We won't have flying cars or paper thin computers any time soon, but don't pretend like you aren't on a massive cope with your shitty dual core craptop that can't even handle 4K videos. I am in the market right now for a laptop and I am looking at 8 core 16 thread Ryzen CPU laptops with pen integration, Navi iGPU, has 1080p screen and 4K HDMI, and over 7 hours of battery. Show me ONE laptop from a decade ago that does that.
