To everyone commenting on the looming job-pocalypse that will be caused by the automation of trucks, please explain why much simpler transportation systems to automate have not resulted in wide-scale job loss. Last I checked, airplanes still had multiple pilots accompanied by significant ground control crews operating them, despite significantly fewer environmental challenges to their operation. Freight trains and subway systems - even simpler closed-loop transportation systems that have working fully autonomous examples in most major airports - still employ conductors. Why will trucks be different?
