The Cybertruck

Time:  noon
Ahmanson Lab | Leavey Library, 3rd floor (LVL 301)
Add to Calendar 2024-10-08 12:00:00 2024-10-08 13:00:00 The Cybertruck The Cybertruck represents significant technological advances, featuring innovations like steer-by-wire technology, adaptive air suspension, and a powerful electric drivetrain that showcases the potential future of automotive engineering. But the truck has also sparked a wide range of social and cultural critiques. Some argue that, while an electric vehicle, the energy required for its production along with its size undermine its environmental benefits. Others have described it as an elitist military-style vehicle designed to protect the wealthy from inevitable urban warfare and societal collapse. Still others see the hostility and controversy surrounding the Cybertruck simply as an extension of the polarized feelings about Elon Musk himself.<br /> <br /> Topics for discussion during this conversation might include: Does the Cybertruck represent a bold futuristic design that demonstrates Musk&#039;s unique ability to take a concept directly from cyberpunk video games and bring it to life? Or is it an impractical, excessively masculine design that overreaches and should embarrass its owners? Or is it just a truck? How do the public&#039;s polarized views of the Cybertruck reflect wider attitudes toward technological innovation and the influence of tech leaders like Elon Musk on popular culture? 12:00 pm 01:00 pm America/Los_Angeles public
