Maybe there is a role for humans in the used car business for the foreseeable future, just because any automated method for assessing used car value runs into the "winner's curse" problem? (Essentially the only people who sell their cars to the automated system are the ones where the automated system offers them the best price, because there's a problem with the car that the automated system isn't picking up on.)
