If we crack fusion, cold fusion, and room temperature super conductors, the potential societal shift would be like, I dunno, switching from pre-electric to electric, or horse and buggy to cars.
Out of the three, I only think room-temperature superconductors are possible for humanity to achieve within our lifetimes. Fusion would require unfathomable amounts of energy to kickstart.
I mean, he’s not wrong. “A few breakthroughs…”

Honestly, we just need the first one. The other two would be fantastic, but are by no means strictly necessary.
i don’t think cold fusion is possible
I think you’re in the same boat with a lot of people, but as a hypothetical it’s…

Cool.
