Driverless trucks being demoed in Texas. Your CDL won't mean shyt soon.

I’d say sooner. You talk to any pilot, they only fly take off and landings. I used to think they flew to 10K in the air. They barely get to 4K.

Them boys making 200-400k a year. Hopefully our flights will be cheaper without that expense. Pilots will be needed to remote the planes but one pilot will probably monitor 7-10 flights.

I’m in aviation. If I had to take a guess, I’d say 2050 but honestly we can get there by 2040 easily.

This is probably accurate. In some capacity controllers/pilots would mold together and essentially they’d be “monitors” of people flying.

just another reason why immigration is NOT needed in this country

AI & automation is already here … we about to have tens of millions of people that have no/zero use = resulting into anarchy

More fear mongering and no critical thinking skills.


The human element will remain in case of emergencies. Trains and airplanes are damn near autonomous and been so the past 30 years but still have human beings on board just in case.

 

[Rasille]

If everything becomes automated then how will people have disposable income to buy anything?

 

[Chrishaune]

Cruise missiles?

No, a company is building an autonomous fighter jet for the military.

you don't see Waymos in your city no drivers.....

 

[Belize King]

They already are bringing in autonomous fighter jets for the military.

I’m a DoD Contractor in aviation. My program requires a secret clearance. shyt is spooky what we can do from the ground through the air.

All these shows and movies about spy tech…

Waymos deep in Atlanta now. Amazon is launching their own version. Amazon will probably lead the move for trucking to be automated along with Tesla.

Do Waymos drive around with a 70,000lb load?

Do Waymos fly in the air with 300 passengers in a 90,000 metal cabin?

yall aint learn from terminator this is a bad idea... or even maximum overdrive

 

[WIA20XX]

should I still get my cdl?

According to the video

• There's already 100% yearly turnover as is.
• 3 times more people with CDLs than CDL jobs

The real grift is TEACHING CDL, not in actually driving.

 

[ReturnOfJudah]

Pull your money together and buy some. Get infront of it

 

[Afrodroid]

Good luck when a tire blowout in the middle of nowhere with no one to fix it

 

[MrFettuccinnePockets]

should I still get my cdl?

Yes nikka. Minimum 65k a yr.

Hardest part is your not going to be home alot the first 18 months or so.

Put an application out and companies are gonna be beating down your door to hire you.

But after that sheeeeiiiiitttt

Get your endorsements no less than 28 an hr if your local. At least 80k a yr.

Dont listen to these dudes on here.

Alot of them dont know or do shyt.

 

[UpAndComing]

I hate to laugh but,


All it takes is an automated Truck driving in a construction zone area in a congested city. After the destruction and unfortunate fatalities happen, people would have to learn a tough lesson

I've realized over the years, people like to learn the hard way
