    They are still working on this?  I feel like Uber should have moved on to something else by now.  Like investing into teleportation.

    I am all for new technologies and am a huge early adopter, but I do hope they get the self-driving thing right first. :)

    Flying cars still just seem so far off to me! I cannot even imagine them.

    In fact this is what I picture...

      I love how the wings are so clearly photoshopped.
