  In this episode's material, **teleportation** names one of three types of
  innovation in the framework Nabeel Hyatt borrows from Rory Sutherland. It's
  the grand, obvious dream — something everyone wants, like Cruise and
  self-driving cars — but where nobody yet knows how to get there. Nabeel places
  it alongside the other two categories: **faster horses** (incremental
  improvement, where most venture funding flows and most of it gets 'arbitraged
  out of existence' within four years) and **Japanese toilets** (the thing you
  didn't know you needed until you experienced it, subtle and hard to
  execute).For Nabeel, teleportation bets are not the hunting ground: he says he
  is 'looking for mostly new experiences — things that surprise you with the
  place that they're playing,' with **Granola** as his canonical
  Japanese-toilets example.

It's the grand, obvious dream — something everyone wants, like Cruise and self-driving cars — but where nobody yet knows how to get there.
