An effective battery cell....with alternative energy options, having batteries than can be mobile and hold mass amounts of energy will be clutch.

Imagine tailgating with a battery cell instead of a generator.


This. We'll also start to see more generation at the point of load and reduce the reliance (not eliminate before everyone freaks out) on grid support.

Is mass adoption of autonomous vehicles that type of game changer?

yes

who do you sue when a computer malfunctions and runs into another autonomous car? it "could" put an end to distracted drivers as well as frivolous accident lawsuits

The next 100 years are going to be interesting
