It's still years away. It's like cold fusion. It's always 10 years away.
Well it seems like the mechanical aspect of the technology is there, but the software, AI and even regulation are slow to catch on.

Again, you are getting hung up on timelines. I don't get it. Big deal if he is off by a few years. The biggest worry I would have is if he is scamming people, and I think it is pretty clear that he is most definitely not.
