Why Gen Z Might Never Learn How to Drive

Although self-driving cars have been a topic of discussion for over a decade, recent updates on technological advancements have been limited. Companies like Waymo are pioneering the shift from traditional services like Lyft and Uber. While their impact is currently confined to cities such as Phoenix and San Francisco, Brad Hargreaves, founder and editor of Thesis Driven, argues that once infrastructure is fully developed, autonomous vehicles will transform commuting for work and leisure and significantly impact the broader economy.

With increasing numbers of Gen Z moving to urban areas and U.S.'s strict licensing requirements for teenagers, the need for personal vehicle ownership may diminish. Brad suggests that we may soon view cars more as rental services rather than personal assets.

Tune into this fascinating conversation between Fifth Wall's CEO & CIO Brendan Wallace and Brad.
