8. The future of mobility reside in the ability to “connect”
individualistic “robots”in order to optimize transport as a whole.
The future of mobility isn't in autonomous
vehicles but in what they can offer once
they're operated and managed altogether.
“Without the control tower, a fleet of airplanes cannot be
operated, even if equipped with autopilot.”
