Nuro has little self-driving delivery vehicles. But someone has to come out to them and take the stuff out, so they're not all that useful.
Hm. Not sure I would say that... there really isn't a one-size fits all unloading mechanism across trucking/delivery and there will be a human involved in that process till we really really standardized.

The value is now cutting the labor number by 1/3rd. Need a loader and unloader, no more driver. In food delivery this essentially removes your labor cost since the restaurant and consumer are the loader/unloader.

Thanks. I see them driving around the neighborhood but haven’t noticed anyone in the back seat, driver only.
