One exists and is wildly useful. The other is self indulgent bullshit to distract from the fact that Tesla is a terrible company that would be bankrupt without the circus act.
How much fucking money was deposited to make a piece of shit car fly for a couple of seconds that could have changed many many lives makes me sick. Fuck this timeline and fuck that musk gooch
What you clearly don't understand is that the spectacle is what leads to further innovation. Going to the moon had fuck all purpose other than just being able to say that we did it and the Russians didn't. But our space program gave us GPS, cordless powertools, chemical-free water sanitization, digital signal processing, and the CMOS sensors sitting in your phone right now, among many other things.
Similarly, if we can pack things into a car that can keep it upright midair or even slow it's descent, we save lives in some otherwise very nasty crashes. Is this exact mechanism that Elon demonstrated what's going to do it? No, but we've now seen that it's possible and further work can be done to make it more practical.
