Trains are to transit evolution as crabs are to biological evolution. If you actually try to improve efficiency in any transit system you'll inevitably reinvent trains.
It's still funny that these car-brained tech bros can't go beyond individual cars controlled independently even when faced with both the obvious downsides and inefficiencies as well as clear ways to improve car based transit.
Barely related, but I want to point out that carcinization only happens to hard shelled creatures, possibly only aquatic ones. Different groups of animals have a few different ideal forms.
For predatory mammals, the ideal form is ferret. Become long.
One central AI controlling all of them is just the first step into reinventing trains, again.

Im short but i stink. Am i almost there?
(I <3 ferrets don't@)
Reading this comment chain on a high speed train really enriches the experience
