No, trucking and delivery will not be automated, probably not in our lifetime.
>who will keep people from stealing shipments?
>who will unload deliveries to custom locations?
>roads in all states are god awful, a truck will drive them perfectly by themselves?
>liability is one of the biggest issues freight faces, avg of weight of load is 80,000 to 300,000 lbs flying down the road unmannded, no liability.
>because of above totally uninsurable
>hundreds of other reasons
lmao no way trucking will be automated, not in our lifetime like this guy said. >>54983810
even if it somehow becomes, there will be drivers needed in frozen canada or some dangerous shitholes.

Any profitable job requiring creative application of knowledge will last for at least a few more decades. don't skip your final exams, guys...
>>54983516
By the time that happens you'll be retired bud. It may never really happen in all likelyhood, DOT will probably always require a motor operator even once automation is prefected. CDL is one of the few safe occupations that has steady growth.
>>54983516
OP, in california over $1 million in goods get stolen every year from shipping yards via big rigs, automation will probably make that number jump to $100million, i don't think you have to worry about loosing your just just yet

>CDL is one of the few safe occupations that has steady growth.
Somehow I doubt this one.

>who will keep people from stealing shipments?
long distance: locked containers
last mile: fedex and UPS drivers leave packages at doors already for most things
>who will unload deliveries to custom locations?
drones
>roads in all states are god awful, a truck will drive them perfectly by themselves?
better than human drivers half the time just by virtue of robots never being drowsy drivers.
>liability is one of the biggest issues freight faces, avg of weight of load is 80,000 to 300,000 lbs flying down the road unmannded, no liability.
not a technical issue, solely a legal one. Some insurance company will probably sell coverage for it for the maker and operator of the self-driving trucks.
>because of above totally uninsurable
only until some big carrier says to some state "clarify the liability thing or we'll build our distribution center somewhere else that will"
All it'll take is one truck driver falling asleep at the wheel and killing a telegenic family for states and trucking companies to all get behind self-driving for safety reasons.
>>54983516
Haul logs like I do. They cant automate that anytime soon.

Why are Normies allowed to become software devs? I never had an issue with robot coworkers

And the only industry that has a 90%+ turnover rate. It's a shit job.

It's never too late to learn how to program

Get a girlfriend and stop spending too much time at your computer you faggot.
Med school is your only option if you don't want to be automated in 10 years. Even then you'll have to be careful about what specialty you choose because half of them will be automated soon (radiology, pathology, infectious disease, anaesthesiology, oncology, etc).

>implying fucking AI won't substitute those
>>54983913
There are automated semis on the road as we speak. This isn't a "in 20 years" or even "in 5 year" thing. It's happening right now.
>>54984062
it *can* be automated right now. It's just more expensive to build the machine to do it than it is to pay you to do it. Automation only ever gets cheaper though, and workers only get more expensive.

Fortunately getting a girlfriend has not turned me into a frat bro douchebag brogrammer.
The worst part is they're often mediocre at their job.

Open up the classifieds, faggot. National driver shortage currently ongoing, and will only get worse with all the old timers retiring.

Is 13 too late to become a laywer? If my IQ is sub 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 will I have to become a detective instead?
>>54983516

Isn't there autocruise for like 20 years now?
>>54984143
You meme but Cuckifornia almost accidentally disarmed every police officer in the state in a fit of gun grabbing idiocy.
>>54984128
NO fucking way a truck can go in the woods and get loaded through automation.
>>54984143
what anime are you quoting?
>>54983516
if you are willing to put time into it it's never too late
hell, there is 90 something woman in japan that got a college degree recently

ten years ago they said there was no way a computer would ever be able to drive a car on city streets on its own. Ten years ago they said that computers might beat grandmasters at chess, but never ever at go. Ten years ago saying something to a computer and having it interpret it correctly and reply to you was something that only happened on Star Trek, now your phone does it.
You really gonna bet your livelihood on the proposition that picking up long, somewhat irregularly-shaped objects, dropping them into a truck, and driving along a dirt road is a problem that computers won't ever be able to do, at least not for 30 years or so?

Milky Holmes.
The girl in the picture has a recurring joke where she claims her IQ is ridiculously and increasingly high, until she says something like she has a "10000000000000000000000000000000" IQ.
>>54983516

>>54984069
