- Where do we go from here ➶

The personal automobile reshaped streets, all but extinguished urban horses and their waste, supplanted local transit and interurban railways, germinated new building typologies, decentralized cities, created exurban sprawl, reduced incidental social contact, gave rise to the Interstate Highway System (bulldozing Black communities in the process), gave everyone lead poisoning, and became a leading cause of death among young people. Many parts of the US are highly car-dependent, even though a third of us don’t drive. As a driver, cyclist, transit rider, and pedestrian, I think about this legacy every day: how so much of our lives are shaped by the technology of personal automobiles, and the specific way the US uses them.
I want you to think about “AI” in this sense.
