Mobility, Hyperlanes, Bullet Trains, and AI Autonomous Cars - AI Trends

I feel the need, the need for Maglev speed. The Maglev has been considered the fastest commercial High-Speed Rail (HSR) line and whisks passengers at a breathtaking 267 miles per hour from the Pudong airport to the Longyang station in Shanghai, a distance just shy of 20 miles. Named the Maglev because it uses magnetic levitation, it has been a marvel since it first opened in 2004. There are other high-speed rail lines of a research nature that are faster than the Maglev but holds the top record for a commercial in-use line. Let's call high-speed rail lines a more flavorful name, bullet trains. Of course, a bullet train cannot really go as fast as a bullet (which travels around 1,700 mph), though if you are standing on the sidelines when a bullet train goes past it might seem like it is going over a thousand miles per hour. Those of us in the United States don't have many bullet train choices and the preponderance of bullet trains are found in Europe and Asia. If you hold your breath, you might get a chance to someday ride a bullet train in California. That's actually a funny statement because anyone that lives in California knows that we've been pining away to have a bullet train for quite a long time.
