That sounds like the things that the people from the 80's used to say about how will be the future.
I recently turned 18 and now I have a little question...

Dude, in a generation western people are going to be a minority in every western country. People who have never ran a functional society are going to be the overwhelming democratic majority. Half of the western people left who will be said minority are seriously confused about their sex and sexuality and are rigorously trained in a collectivist quasi-religious way of thinking. The universities have gone from beacons of enlightenment age thinking to weird kindergartens where people accumulate debt for no reason and where obviously wrong science is being touted as something it's heretical to question.
You don't have to be Zig Forums to realize how much things are going to change in a very short time. If we're lucky WW3 kicks off. That's how insane the ride is about to get.

We've been living in cyberpunk since the 90s

And I'm not even scratching the surface here. Add in a complete botnet with total surveillance nearing completion and terror events, what is it now, every week?
If you think comfy and mellow boomer society is going to persist beyond all this and more you're crazy.

Flying / Hover cars have been "right around the corner" since the 80's, just like VR. When we actually get real VR, nobody wants it. If you can buy a used gas guzzler for less than $10k, who the fuck is going to buy a flying car for $100k? Change wont be aesthetic. It will be necessary and affordable otherwise it wont happen.
Thomas Stewart
Only in the urban dystopian part of the cyberpunk, without the technology or aesthetics.

The same people that buy sports cars for 200k, it's not weird, in fact, i think they are going to sell well after some time in the market.
Kevin White
but we have flying cars, they cost a few million. He'll we've had boat cars since the 50s.

There are never going to be self-driven flying cars. Even coordinating airplanes is hard as shit, and they have lots and lots of leeway, monitoring and trained pilots. AI driven vehicles is a meme, at the level of bumper cars or something, and it's doubtful we'll ever get it unless the general public is banned from the roads so people don't die all over everyday.
This is the reason why you don't get flying cars, it's not a technological problem per se.
Oliver Lee
No, they'll prioritize it and make it happen even if it kills everyone. Think of the power Google would have. "Trump rallies are racist/sexist/xenophobic. Asking our car to drive you there violates our ToS and your service has been cancelled."
