A couple of years ago I saw an article on Toyota inventing something called solid state battery’s… Never heard anything about that again.
So I went to my search engine of choice, typed in solid state battery, set the time range to 1 month, went to the news tab, and this is the first link. 2 days old.
Just because no one went out of their way to remind you that researchers are continuing their research doesn’t mean they stopped doing it. And when the bar is this low to satisfy your curiosity, it really is on you. It would have taken less time to get the highlights than it would to post your comment.
You went on google and found an article indicating LG is still trying to develop solid state batteries.
Here an article I googled about a cure for cancer.
Congratulations on your ability to find things to confirm your bias on google. You’ve just entered the same arena creationists and flat earthers plow around in.
Not to mention the article you provided was nothing more than “LG is researching solid state batteries” with no supplementary information and feels like it was generated by an AI.
It’s the internet doofus. People generate articles about anything and everything as long as someone will click on it. Just make sure you also click on the ads as well.
Sorry, I forgot that some people say quaint little phrases like “never heard about them again” to mean “still haven’t seen a product released to market.” I also don’t live in a world where companies start multi-billion dollar partnerships with no belief that the corporations will get a return on that investment.
Sorry, I forgot to say that some people forgot what confirmation bias is.
That’s all those articles talk about, how they’re going to research this and that. Millions of internet articles are generated every day. They use AI to make them now.
Of course solid state batteries are a topic of research, people are talking about them all the time. And nothing ever comes of it. Same with “the cure for cancer” or “room temperature super conductors”
Are you not understanding what I’m eluding to? Or are you intentionally acting obtuse to trigger me?
Then I’ll go to the basics. This which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. You made your assertion, I provided evidence. You dismissed it with “Well, everybody knows.” And yet, new discoveries are made all the time, research continues apace, and technology advances. Believe what you will. Your faith, or mine, makes no difference.
Edit: I’m so sorry, I forgot to read a little further for you in my search the first time. Nissan is building a factory and plans on having their first batteries produced in 2025. That’s just one article I saw about it, there were others. My apologies if you find this triggering, as well.
