- CBS News Texas was allowed to ride on one of Aurora's test drives with two operators whose only job is to make sure the self-driving truck does its job.
How do they fuel up and put themselves on scales, and adjust the weight if necessary? So many questions....
We've seen cars having issues, let's try it with 40 ton vehicles. All in efforts to make the CEO more money, and layoff employees.
am i the only one thinking this is not a good idea?
Doesn't matter, capitalists only care about the bottom line.
Aurora is a zombie who is once again kept alive by greed! No one wants Aurora except 4 groups Aurora itself, investors who want to support an absolute monopoly, airports and port facilities otherwise no one wants Aurora. No truck driver wants Aurora, no freight forwarder wants Aurora, no shipper wants Aurora, because of Aurora everyone either loses their job or is in a truck or financial dependency that nobody wants.
Buy Aurora as a thank you in 10 years from today your profession or your company will no longer exist, because we will take over everything and we won't leave a crumb, if you do not sign the contract that forces you into absolute dependence with us, you can already look for another business where you can try your luck.
It will be really funny when Aurora gets so big that it has an impact on the price of gasoline or electricity.
Because what is easier than self-driving cars for Aurora? To build gas stations or charging stations where their vehicles are refueled or serviced and no one has access from outside because everything is done by purchasing from Aurora or the service is done by their few employees because the vehicles can all be directed to one place but Aurora itself influences an entire economy.
These will be great times when one company alone is responsible for the stock market value and the economic performance of an entire industry. How nice it is if you play the capitalist dream to the end, you end up with communism again, someone who wants to control everything and then wants to explain to you what advantages you have from it
@@therealghost8978 I was with you, until your misunderstanding of what Communism is, everything else is spot on.
@@juanmacias5922 I understand very well what communism is, I just didn't want to prolong the text indefinitely because it's already long anyway and I think people also like to think for themselves and know what I'm trying to say.
I wanted to say that “communism” “equality” is not a goal worth striving for and has never worked in human history, regardless of whether it serves communism or capitalism. Equality has no creative power, only a destructive one.
I think it should be clear by now that it was a metaphor for whether extreme left or right, whether communism or capitalism, everything that goes to such extremes can only end up being bad and it's scary how much these things can look alike even if they have different goals.
I also wanted to say that there was not a single country in history where communism was divided up in such a way that everyone got something out of it, it was always divided up in such a way that the masses had almost nothing and a few had everything, which is exactly what capitalism does. if I wasn't poor you wouldn't be rich if I wasn't rich you wouldn't be poor
@@therealghost8978 fair enough, but under a Capitalistic economy, A.I. would never become Communism, no matter how much big tech companies lie about how this will help humanity, what will end up happening is that Capitalism will finally self implode, as no one will be hired, and no one will be able to spend.
One thing I don't like about Abbott is he letting this happen
Abbot is part of the WEF.
And the money saved will go to lawyers when they crash.
Why do they need a sleeper back there if no one’s going to be inside.
Don’t worry the truth is it’ll be just like the EVs won’t last long. There’ll be too many accidents with these autonomous vehicles that it’ll eventually phase out anyway. These vehicles won’t take trucker’s jobs but it will compliment companies wanting to save money on long hauls. Autonomous vehicles will still have a driver in the seat as the pilot. There’s a lot of experimenting going on and just because Aurora is announced doesn’t mean their trucks are in finishing stages.
do they stop for dot to inspect and go thru scales to be weighed??
Get this buddy..
Autonomous trucks are scale exempt 😅
@@kajg4236 anybody following the W.E.F. 'guidelines' should have no problem with the law in the U.S. of A.... they own it now, right?
the biggest can of worms the government has ever opened 😁 this is going to be the biggest failure in trucking history... I'm glad I'm retired and I can sit back and watch the shit show 😂
Lucky you, other wise you'd have to deal with being laid off, by greedy company owners.
@@juanmacias5922
Most of the small trucking companies in my city have either parked or filed bankruptcy... Things are going to get a lot worse before they get better, the big Mega Carriers are the root to all evil 😈 all it will take is one bad accident and the insurance will drop the company instantly.... I think it would be worth it to have a human driver vs nobody at all...
Luck you I gotta actually ride beside these things beside mines. Hoping nobody hacks them.
@@mr.ComnandoSpawn although they have been reported to be rather simple to hack, I'd just worry about the ones that malfunction on their own, that's more likely to happen more often.
@@juanmacias5922 Any computer can be hack satellite can go down EMP attack.
Boy, this is old news. Simi makers have been test driving self
driving trucks on California & Nevada roads for over 2 years.
I trust computers WAY more than the DUI or angry or depressed
or inexperienced or running from the law or their hit & run or
sleepy or unskilled or whatever person.
98% of ALL collisions are driver caused.
Our driving privilege's are about to be revoked.
!
Just you wait and see when autonomous trucks commit the felony of hit-and-run, because their computer fails to recognize they even hit someone in the first place.
The reality is can Aurora haul a load from Anaheim CA to Brookshire TX for 1300$ and make a profit because i can.
Good luck jack.
Yea put more people out of work
Flatbed car hauler Tanker Oversized will have get a robot to the manual work that with part or trucking
lol a few months ago
loyalty and respect shown to the truckies who have dedicated to keep an economy moving no more job for you more profit for the companies compassion out the window a sick world
This is going to kill lot of jobs 😢
And people if they get Hacked.
@@mr.ComnandoSpawn You don't even need hacking to do that. I've been using computers my entire adult life. They are not infallible. I've had plenty of unexplained glitches, and if those glitches happen while controlling 50 tonnes, that's a lawsuit waiting to happen. You can't charge a corporation with manslaughter, like you can when a human driver makes a catastrophic mistake.
What's next,,,ice road trucking lolll....good bye 👋 to all truck driving jobs...look for another career. Lmao 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Bs
Trucking is a boring job to do anyways.
