Scenarios about 'autonomous vehicles'
The development and implementation of self-driving transportation systems that operate with minimal human intervention through advanced technologies like artificial intelligence, sensors, and machine learning. Autonomous vehicles represent a significant evolution in transportation history, emerging from early driver assistance systems to fully self-driving capabilities. In alternate history scenarios, their earlier or later development could dramatically reshape urban planning, employment patterns, energy consumption, and social mobility across different timelines.
What If Self-Driving Cars Were Developed Earlier?
Exploring the alternate timeline where autonomous vehicle technology matured in the early 2000s, fundamentally transforming transportation, urban planning, and daily life decades before our timeline.
