Reacting to Elon's flying car demo, meghalilly argues the excitement comes from it being a rare physical innovation — not another app or chatbot but a real three-dimensional thing, countering tech's screen-pulling fatigue. dreamwieber adds that impracticality complaints miss the point: it's engineering prowess plus fun, "SpaceX tech in a car, clearly only possible with today's AI advancements," a visceral feel of the progress curve we're on.
