I am from the automotive industry, founded some start ups based in the transportation sector. The level of bureaucracy, politics and regulation is a huge monopoly.

The whole environment argument is heavily flawed in each sector, from energy, design & engineering, manufacturing and the heavy reliance in the global supply chain. One fundamental issue as you quite right pointed out is the existing requirement to the reformation of the transportation infrastructure, road networks and so on, it’s simply a mammoth task that extends way beyond the narrative of “EV vehicles” and “self driving”

What was once an opportunistic investment landscape has now shifted global interests elsewhere focusing on building the “meta” world and expanding on consumables such “digital” goods over physical items. In the next decade we will see extraordinary changes to the way of life “as we currently know it” Ai is just the beginning and we are witnessing the birth of the 5 Industrial Revolution going into the year 2030.
