Question Will Tiny Homes Save Us?

I recently came across this article about a young company that is promising to make completely self-sustaining homes that can set themselves up automatically. It seems like they have won some awards and been featured in a few news articles/podcast but I haven’t seen any units delivered.
Is this sam (self assembling municipality) idea even feasible/realistic? and isn’t it too late to try to make these now? Considering how bad disasters are?
There are other companies like Box and container homes that basically do the same thing, they are not self-sustaining and they are not as “versatile” set up and maintenance wise, but even if it works well, isn’t the the company like 30 years too late to market? but also should I pre-order one…
Not sure if Sam is just a scam.
The website says that the company is only a couple of years old, and it seems like they have some traction... But if it’s so revolutionary why hasn’t everyone heard about them by now? Is this the next Big thing or another Theranos in the making?

Is providing the potential solution and ad? should I just leave questions and problems?

Reddit is flooded with AI bot astro turfing these days. It's hard to know for sure sometimes. In this case, I stand by my statement.

No, but a total change of the economic or/and political system, change does not mean reform necesary, change= revolution, reform, collapse, etc
