Ages ago, our parents and our parents' parents promised us an exciting future full of useful tech, robots, and flying cars. We'd zip around like George Jetson, have jet packs, Star Trek-like replicators, and more. And then the world just collectively said, "Nah, bro, that's just fantasy. We ain't ever getting there."
It still feels like having the rug pulled out from under our feet, as we scrape by as social media became the dominant force in tech, for better and worse.
Luckily, there are still folks who long for that bright, shiny, and wild future we were promised. Folks who will push the boundaries of science and technology and attempt to bring forth something new and novel. Folks who want for more. And some of those folks work for motorcycle manufacturer Suzuki, which just recently announced that it had partnered with SkyDrive, a startup out of Japan that promises to make eVTOL electric helicopter taxis that you and I could theoretically take all around Tokyo.
