From 2012 so AI doesn't factor in which would be more interesting in comparison.

Having watched the Jetsons as a kid I remember that George Jetson worked for Spaceley Sprockets where his only job was to push a single button. He worked with a computer personality called Rudy (an AI) who from memory was always depressed and had a crush on a female computer personality of rival company Cogsworth Cogs.

It would be interesting to revisit this with a focus on the relationship and interactions between humans and their AI/robotics.

The Jetsons was honored by the Power Puff girls with a number of Easter egg appearances. Just search ‘power puff firms and jetsons’ for examples.

Interestingly, if we could do floating orbital platforms above Venus, it could perhaps look a little like the Jetsons.

What's up with all those equals signs anyway?
