- Fasten your seat belt as software engineer Alex Koster takes us on a journey in what he calls the "software dream car" of the future. He breaks down how massive technological shifts are transforming the automotive industry and paints a vivid picture of where cars are headed -- from AI drivers to interiors and exteriors shaped by augmented and virtual reality.

I’m surprised that the problem he outlines initially is the fundamental of having a heavy thing move a few people, and his solution isn’t addressing weight or scale of vehicle at all, but is leaning into computational power to make us comfortable while we sit in traffic.
The solution seems apparent to me, we have to explore a different scale of machine, and build machines that do more with less. For the last 10 years I’ve used an e-bike as my primary mode of transit. Using a motor that is about the same size as my blender has made me question how much power we actually need in our vehicles. There’s a number of benefits to scaling down vehicles: it requires less power to move them, so we don’t need nearly as much battery. A modern electric vehicle uses anywhere from 60-100KwH battery to move at most 6 people, whereas an e-bike battery is typically .5-1kWH. That’s easily a design 10x more efficient in its use of power.
The biggest value to scaling down: it’s more nimble, and therefore quicker. E-bikes don’t reach the top speed that cars, but they can be deceptively much quicker navigating dense cities and suburbs.
We don’t need our cars to be catering to our every need, we need to rethink our power to weigh ratio and build less heavyweights and more featherweights.
And what if you want to travel in groups or with your family?
@@KaushalMalkan I agree that there’s a bit of a gap in the vehicles available, but it doesn’t seem logical that because you’re traveling in a group you now use a vehicle that is 80-100x heavier. When we use a car, more than 90% of the fuel used is just to move the car, not the passengers or cargo. We may have normalized that, but it’s truly unsustainable.
@@KaushalMalkan Then you rent a car for that specific occasion, and for the 99% of the time you just drive by yourself you take your bike/train.
Most people never drive with others. that's a fact. it's stupid to design a system that caters to the 1% case when you can design it for the 99% case. It's a mind boggling waste of resources that could be invested somewhere else.
If our future is to be driven by a computer in our cars then it would make more sense to just take the bus/train (where available) instead of paying $100K for our own VR Smart Bubble Car.
You grossly underestimate the benefit of NOT being around the filthy masses, and the often dangerous mass transit of democrat controlled hellholes.
If they're automous you'd just hail one like an uber paying for a subscription rather than outright ownership
Or better yet, do the same from your home office chair
It already makes more sense to use public transport over automobiles when possible
I think that in the future it makes more sense not to own the car to be used to the maximum and of course you get rid of many worries such as maintenance or parking
10:29 ohkay, lemme share the real side:
* bloated software,
* locked down everything,
* advertisments everywhere.
* data collection and selling to 3rd parties
* locking you inside the car, or taking remote control of the car
I like how he speaks like an AI
Interesting talk, but a lot of this sounds not that great to me. For one thing Blade Runner is set in a dystopia; the original is one of my favourite films, but I don't *want* the future to look like that! Also why would I want to have virtual reality inside my car? I want to see where I'm going and experience the journey.
The dream car of the future is a bus. Or a train. You know, working, functional and affordable public transport.
not when you live in a desert.
@@shloomyshloms maybe humans should not live in deserts?
@@iamfinky as a desert dweller I agree, but too expensive to move.
@@shloomyshloms That's understandable. I think we need a whole new paradigm for transport in the desert.
Or more like minivans that act like taxis ( pay before ride like Uber) with ai/remote driving and cameras to control riders
The dream car of the future will be a bicycle.
Bus.
not when you live in a desert.
My dream car of the future will likely remain a 90's NSX
I'd hope it's the Judge from Dukes and Hazard. Perfect look, perfect car!
The companies always try to satisfy the customers seek for “user experience”: everything has to be satisfying. So in the future cars will be rolling amusement parks until the market likes autonomous car mobility to the cost of a bus ticket.

If AI runs everything we may be able to do with out Politicians
mr garrison already came up with a great solution its called " the IT bike"
I fancy on Tesla car at the moment and I’ll choose them at the future.
My dream is that in the future we will not need cars to move around.
You're completely wrong, what transport needs most is efficiency. Why spend that much on something you only spend 30mins in. These thing need to come to the home first.
The dream car of the future hopefully will be a push bike
Very hopeful 🙏🏻🌷✨🙏🏻
car=freedom
Freedom that need federal subsidies to have the surplus roads to accomodate everyone with a car 🤣. Car infrastructure don't scale, no matter what you get told
It’ll be … gay 🏳️🌈
😂
wow, I never think of this before.

Nightmare... Glad I'm a boomer, & had a real experience re: 'actual' cars.
My future dream car is a rust pile waiting to revived, not A.i. "siri do a burnout" nah i want to put my foot down and burn rubber. Not wait for an A.i. to approve based off data points.
I just want a car that drives itself.
A bus
That sounds utterly dull to me. Self driving cars is my image of dystopia.
I'd rather have it drive me.
Time for zero-G!!
I’m forced to do a ted talk assignment for school. I want to kms listening to this guy yap about gay AI cars that aren’t affordable.
the future car will be 3d printed
I fully agree with everything said, but how the h* did this get to be a TED video?
Shift mechanik to software 😊
Fosil energy to clear energy
definetly not eletric until power storage density and charging infrastructure problems will be solved
And how many millions of dollars will that dream car cost?
Musicins write songs about car
So romantic
Have you ever seen the air pick up dust and spin it in a tiny whirlwind at your feet? The twirling particles reveal the current. Without this demonstration, the wind might remain invisible and whir by unnoticed.
Your habits demonstrate self-respect in the same way. Your inner regard is made manifest through your actions.
The next time you sense a breeze upon your face, let it remind you of the power within. Remember each time you follow through on a habit, you’ve just given form to the current of self-respect that stirs inside.
Trains are the future
🧐🤔
Just like computers, technology will allow the next generation of cars to be smaller by a factor of 10.

Cars do not have to weigh 2000Kg. Buy a smaller one!
Ditch the car - go motorcycles and ebikes
Death traps
Hope everyone have their dream car one day
you can buy the car of the future today, it’s called; Tesla 😎
i predict electric cars will not be most sold in 2028
Idk man, considering the current growth rate that’s been happening for the past decade it’s almost like saying the Internet is just a fad back in the 90s
And yet RV sales are growing rapidly and engine car sales are falling off a cliff. Your comment won't agree well.

Tesla
One word - Tesla
They are more like the golfs and polos. Average and everywhere.
one word: Aptera
Yeah, pretty much everything was either "the car will be able to sense when you are stressed and literally read your mind" kookiness, or stuff Tesla has already done (or is doing).
Yeah a lot of what he was saying reminded me of Tesla. High end software, over the air updates, autonomous, in car entertainment.
Not my dream car.
Just go outside nothing has changed
A bus
What a terrible presentation. Just ideas floating in the air. Except none of them are new. There are engineers working years to get an idea to work in reality. Then there are people giving Ted talks complaining why these ideas arent here yet. 😂 I was genuinely curious and then amazed how empty this talk is.
Aptera
They're flirting with bankruptcy
Uninspiring.
