The United Arab Emirates, which has gone all in on getting into the space-tourism business, unveiled a hotel room that can fly itself this past September. The “astro pad” isn’t available yet, but the company that built it, called SOMA Space, says that they will begin taking reservations next year. When it does go on sale, this hotel room will cost $750,000 for a week-long stay. You can stay in it for free — if you don’t mind sleeping in a crash cabin and you have no problem literally living out of a suitcase. That is, you can only take the astro pad with you if you have a reservation at another of SOMA Space’s hotels. Music: https://www.purple-planet.com

It’s a question I get asked all the time, probably more so than any other on this list. Why is it such a pressing concern? Well, there are lots of things that machines can do better than humans. We should embrace that fact and use machines to make the world a better place. The key is in the hands of the individual. It depends on the kinds of jobs that are done by the person. Technology has made the lives of humans easier and convenient. The only way to get future jobs is to change with the changing times and progress. Music: https://www.purple-planet.com

If you don’t like the idea of your next ride being a robotic taxi, you may be in the minority. Driverless cars have captured the imaginations of tech gurus and policymakers worldwide, for whom they represent the ultimate expression of our mobility future. Some enthusiasts believe that autonomous cars could save millions of lives each year. Others claim they could solve the problems of traffic jams and expensive urban parking. Yet most of us, when we’re in the driver’s seat, take complete control for granted. So why is everybody so interested in handing it over? Music: https://www.purple-planet.com
