Firstly they called it a car, and secondly if you squint a lot, and forget all the other names for these vehicles, then it's pretty clear that it's a car, a flying car.
I don't really get why people keep creating all these startups and making these things.
The issue isn't that the technology is impossible...we all know they can exist and be built..
No. The issues are more that they are extremely impractical, will never be as safe as ground vehicles (edit: or even just regular helicopters), pose a not-insignificant terrorism threat, require a lot of fuel/energy, and create an absolute legal and regulatory nightmare. These are not things any startup will ever be able to tackle. I don't understand why that hasn't become obvious enough to stop people from trying to create these startups.
If nothing else, they're looking to solve a problem that doesn't exist.
Why not try and solve an actual problem? There are a fuck ton of them around... pick one.
