What a fantastic business. I've watched lots of digger (as we call them here) drivers in action and I'm in awe of what these machines can do and how incredibly skilled their operators are. We have several large rock walls on our property and watching these guys delicately picking and placing huge rocks to key them in just blows my mind.

There was a YouTube video recently of an AI-assisted digger making a wall out of the concrete rubble from a demolition.

I believe the applications for really smart excavators must be huge. Sounds like this might be a step on that voyage.

You're spot on! The experienced operators are quite skilled at moving these machines. The number of operators who could do this work are decreasing and it's also pretty dangerous which explains the reduction of new people joining in, especially with better ways to make money today. We're getting started with remote teleop and moving towards full autonomy!
