- May 14 -- Regulatory and technological obstacles may hold back the driverless car for decades. But one of the first driverless semi-trucks is already driving, legally, on the highway's of Nevada.Businessweek's Sam Grobart went to Las, Vegas for a test drive. (Source: Bloomberg)

Being a truck driver for 21 years with a perfect safety record the fact is this truck is nice and dandy rolling down a empty test bed but the fact is given the unperdictability of other peoples driving and verying road conditions this truck has a long way to go to replace a real driver which as you can see they can not phase out of the driver seat because there is a trust issue The fact is a to replace a driver like myself is a long way off and basically this is a ploy just to get research funding and even if you do make one lets see what it does when you begin to jacknife on ice the fact is I am in my 40s and this will not take effect till long after I am worm food
Well in all honesty in the 1950s they said we would be driving personal aircraft everywhere in the united states the thing is people like to dream this will be a immediate thing but the reallity there is so many obsiticals mentally and legally that I will probally be retired or dead before this takes affect. And in regards to the less than desireable drivers we have the same issue in the united states alot of the jobs are being filled by immigrants from africa and russia and their standards of how they perform is not the same as some of us veteran drivers and it is a whole diffrent atmosphere out there those movies with all the truckers getting along etc that is not reality anymore But hey when the time comes maybe I can drive the truck from my lazyboy at home works for me
+chris barton They weren't using Moore's Law.
Really have you ever driven a truck I think not otherwise you would not make those comments there is so many things you have to deal with not only the millenial a holes out there on the road the weather and just so many things that a common person would have no clue of like yourself in no means do I appreciate someone saying that we are lazy bums if it wasn't for our hard work you spoiled brat kids would not have all your tech devices now I could have taken this down the polite path but when someone says that we dont work hard coming from someone that has no experience I take offense to it and I will not reply to any of your messages sent from here on out maybe some of you kids need to pull your heads out of your asses
What do you have to say about Budweiser using an Otto new driverless truck that just made the first run for them without a driver actually behind the steering wheel? They will be replacing long distance truck drivers within 10 years or less .. you watch. The technology is new and has so many flaws yet to be dealt with to turn these trucks & cars loose on the highway. I find this self driving truck frightening. I know it will be in the future. We cannot stop it. But this constant rush to eliminate the human factor to make it cheaper for the business man to run a business will bite us in the bum. These companies have no patience anymore or real understanding of what it takes to drive a truck in all conditions. That would be like taking some yahoo off the streets putting then in the pilot seat of a commercial jet and say okay there you go it will fly itself you just sit there and look good and punch the start button. There are other cars and trucks on the road and animals crossing etc. And what happens if you get a computer glitch or malware?
We are way too prone to just get the new gadget out there ASAP without serious long term testing and real evaluation of potential risks. It is not like they asked a real driver what they did or did not want or what was even possible. Instead we have an engineer behind the screen. Now if it were an engineer that was a truck driver designing this maybe there would be real insight as to what is needed and what can and cannot be done. They are using us a guinea pigs. Just like pharmaceutical companies .. get it out there ASAP and who cares how many die or what the repercussions are just so it is cheaper for the big boys or so it makes them more profit faster.
I know and completly agree there are so many factors they don't take in account like weather and other drivers my question is when they were doing this delivery for budweiser did they have a escort which would make it a controlled enviorment and we know that in the real world it does not work that way the reality is if this came to pass and the trucks were out there not only driving them selfs not only would it hurt the driver industry think about the truck stops resturants the accesories shops everything even related to the driver aspect of things would lose their job I think it is a slippery slope towards total world unemployment and I cant see that being a good thing in any way. But the reality is the human factor of trust can the general public trust this vehicle to drive them down the road I know I could not so hopefully that will hold it up
0:34 there is nothing safer than a human being constantly behind the wheel.
right .. like the 110 year guy.
yeah I don't see me sleeping in the bunk while this thing drives me.
If you want to lower land freight costs and kill jobs , just develop the existing railroad system. Its already there and is proven already cheaper.
***** i dont live in europe so I didnt factor them into my rant
Or Ships that goes trough canals. Just like Europe.
Driving for 20 years hate it but it's a living. Love to see this blow up in all the stupid desk geeks faces. Life on the road is alot different than sitting around on a computer. On a computer app you can make trucks drive on water to China for all our merchandise.
Here are the levels
Level 0: The driver completely controls the vehicle at all times.
Level 1: Individual vehicle controls are automated, such as electronic stability control or automatic braking.
Level 2: At least two controls can be automated in unison, such as adaptive cruise control in combination with lane keeping.
Level 3: The driver can fully cede control of all safety-critical functions in certain conditions. The car senses when conditions require the driver to retake control and provides a "sufficiently comfortable transition time" for the driver to do so.
Level 4: The vehicle performs all safety-critical functions for the entire trip, with the driver not expected to control the vehicle at any time. As this vehicle would control all functions from start to stop, including all parking functions, it could include unoccupied cars.
copy right of en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_car.
asdf30111 So it would be able to know how to drive in heavy snow? I'm sorry but this will get people killed.
Epica124 It will not drive if it is to risky, once it gets better then it will drive in heavy snow. Unlike a humans (who will drive when they are drunk) it will not take risks.
Currently heavy snow is a problem. So, they aren't currently deployed in heavy snow.
This is being worked on. When they can drive just fine in heavy snow, then and only then will they be deployed in heavy snow.
And the same goes for driving rain, sandstorms, high surf advisories, and whatever other conditions anybody cares to bring up. If the vehicle can't handle it (yet), it won't be deployed in it (yet). When it can, it will be.
FINALLY, a video that completely outlines the level of autonomous driving. I've watched about a dozen of these videos and this is the first one I've seen that even hinted at "under proper conditions"....and simply stated that a driver will still be needed.
FSB75 until is not needed anymore
First the taxi drivers, truck drivers, and fast food employees, then eventually the pilots, accountants, lawyers, and many others. How long before most jobs are automated? We need to decide how to deal with this fact NOW. Not after its displaced millions of the previously employed.
Soon IT jobs will be taken over too. A robot will be able to fix another robot. No one will have a job, and nothing but bad things happen when people are bored.
Capitalism cannot work without consumers.
Don’t worry it’ll soon be like Wall-e where we’re all fat and don’t have to work anymore
They're always careful to say that the human driver is still necessary but the goal is to remove the driver entirely. Drivers cost money, if you talk to any trucker whos worked in the industry long enough they'll tell you about a horrible company they once worked for; how they stiffed them on pay, made them drive during off hours, or some other bad thing. Those types of companies who don't treat the driver well will likely be the one's most willing to cut the driver out to lower their overhead and increase their profit margin.
And laws made by states and governments will never out weigh the laws of economics which says that in an industry where accidents cost time lives and money and workers are in short supply and recruiters have to dole out huge sums to hire drivers, it will not make sense to not switch to driver-less trucks.
David Shafer. Itll cost even more to maintain and buy the trucks. If they are shorting drivers wat makes ppl think they wanna pay mors for the trucks . drivers cost thousands thoss trucks will probalt cost millions
How many drivers you can afford at a cost of one automated truck? maintenance cost for this trucks is not a cheap thing, the cost of this technology of course it will go down on time (as always) but... although technology will prevail and can´t be stopped. we should think massive automation is something new (in the past was mostly "industrial") now is "day to day jobs". Eventually workforce will be reskilled (or not) into new skills needed. But... a new paradigm effects must be studied in order for this to be controlled. Hey, oil could have been replaced as a resources many years ago, but the collapse of doing so is SO big that they are doing it in a more transitioned way. IT should be done this way in this case. System needs to be changed. New paradigm. is on us if we will transitioned with less pain than others.
wrong, them companies do not like honest computers. They like people that will do anything they say.
the most dangerous equipment on the road....driverless? yall kidding me?
nah like self drivings truck your job without need work job you better
Autonomous trucks with drivers still in the cockpit will be short lived & will just serve as a transition period where people get used to the idea of a fully autonomous fleet.
Companies will start to situate their delivery facilities right off the motorway. A fleet of autonomous vehicles will then travel from one depot to the next by only travelling on the motorway, it will never need to come close to towns, or minor roads meaning they can just get on with their job without having to negotiate a multitude of human interaction.
If you are a truck driver for a large company be afraid, your job has an expiry date.
Geraldine Lancaster And people will be killed because the computer will never be able to account for the problems with weather of if it needs chains such as those who drive on ice roads and so on. Sorry this can't work. Just like you can have planes flying people around. You need someone at the controls.
Epica124 Time will prove how wrong you are.
Geraldine Lancaster
NO it won't time will prove to you that computes can't o what humans can. You see people like you will then start saying how we need computers to run airplanes to and so on.
I'm sorry but computer break down. So when the computer breaks down mid flight just what do you think is going to happen. And no someone at flight controls on the ground is not he answer.
Epica124 You know what else breaks down...humans.
You underestimate what is coming, that's fine, I don't blame you, the people who thought horses were as good as it gets before the steam engine was made were just the same.
We are in the dawn of the 2nd machine age, the next step of industrial revolution. This is what the last on looked like - i.imgur.com/eLu5FfG.png . That graph is set to go vertical, you greatly underestimate what is coming, but it is coming fast so you will get a chance to realise your error.
Epica124 You don't understand the technology if you think this is true.
Anyone that has ever owned or used a computer knows that they will CRASH. But I am still very much intrigued by this concept that could turn a driving into a programmer pilot.
What happens on a real cloudy day or heavy rain day when the GPS loses signal? Or, if a sun flare knocks out satellites? .....Assuming these are GPS controlled. Just asking.
Thinking outside the box, thanks.
great idea ! just one issue... how do you make money with an empty trailer? because if I don't work, I don't buy.
I would like to see this thing perform in 2" of snow and see how it puts on the chains with no driver or put fuel in
and see it poop and pickup a lot lizard also ?
love how this was 3 years ago
Soon we'll all look back on driving like people used to look back on hand washing clothes. There will always be people who are unwilling to reskill when the need for their job disappears and so will resist any change, just gotta keep on pushing forward, the world is getting better by almost every metric and technology is driving it.
Exactly. The interesting part about this change related to autonomous trucks, is that I hypothesize very few current truckers will reskill. That combined with very few millennials in the profession will make an interesting transition.
How does it change a tyre or smell a fire or hear a brake lock on when eventually the driver is not there. On a freeway maybe it will work but on a normal road no.
just thinking of a situation if these auto trucks were totally self driven with no on board human assistance and the truck has a headlight or any light burnt out or mechanical defect noticeable to a passing cop would the officer be able to stop truck ,probably not unless the cop was to get in front of truck and slow it to a stop then how would and who would he give ticket too. just thinking out loud here .
Its a fn Freightliner? is the dash falling apart yet?
cool but what price? ??
The day atom-ass trucks take over the highways with driverless cars and cris-crossed with crewless trains will be a blood bath.
Happy to see this!!!
I think it gears towards airlines model. Pilots can rest during long flights, using autopilot. But they are in charge of landing and taking off. Flat beds, tankers and hazardous materials most likely will require a driver on board in case of emergency. This is my opinion.
What movie was it that had AI driving trucks across a desert highway and would talk to you and warn you to move or it threatened your life
One word:Hacking.
I don't think people understand what this video is saying. A truck driver will still have a job. A human has to be behind that wheel. It just take some of the burden off the drivers. It is not safe not having a professional behind the wheel.
Cornelius Maynard they're just going to be making a lot less
Level 3 autonomy is great, but I believe that level 4 and 5 should be banned in commercial use.
That's going to be in the shop a lot.
Lets see if can notice a washed out road , ice on a curve, a car cutting it off because he almost past his exit, or the sensor still working in a snow storm, a train crossing with no drop gates and I can go on and on and on and....
A A380 can fly from dulles to Paris by itself also. Do you really think airlines will stick 400 souls in a pilot less aluminum tube?
I drive a peterbilt 579 with adaptive cruise control and it has a panic attack when it sees its own shadow slamming on the service brakes and relinquishing control to me (the one ultimately responsible). The industry will always need to have someone to finger blame to they will lower driver pay: “you’re not actually driving are you” they will ask the fmcsa to put a new line (“driving but not really, lol”
I have a radar on my current vehicle, it tells me the speed of other vehicles and also slows down my trucks cruise control speed if traffic slows in front of me. The thing is great however, if it sprinkles not even rains it DOES NOT WORK. Can you imagine if the sensors got blocked by rain or debris while out on the road how much havoc these things could do? Drivers may get it easier but they won't be replaced any time soon lol.
Someone is still going to have to work in the truck. And advantages to driverless trucks are you can sleep at night while the truck is driving on the Interstate and dont have to worry about finding parking at truck stops every night. Thats one thing I did not like about being over the road.
MrWill1985. . would you.go to sleep while your truck continues to drive? Knowing it is all computers?
Terrence Manning depending on how much time I had no but I would be doing other things when the truck is self driving
Love it
I like this
i drive a semi in the city all day every day and do a lot of drop and hooks ,i doubt if the auto truck will be beneficial doing what i do,it's use is going to be out on the big road,it sucks to be over the road.
This will soon be a reality, perhaps starting with easy highway runs late at night, but quickly expanding to more complex routes, till in a couple of decades human driven trucks will seem quaint.
Well said.
5 years later buddy and I'm a CDL driver still standing here looking at you
I can't find them bro. No matter where I look bro
kinda reminds me of that movie maximum overdrive, where trucks drive themselves
The driver will not be eliminated completely since he or she will still need to navigate tight city streets. Do not get me started on backing into a dock or alley docking. That requires the experience of the driver and his or her reflexes. They have not come up with a system that can do that. Plus the truck needs to be parked in a truck stop at the end of the night which requires backing the truck in a tight parking situation and other trucks being just feet away. That again will require the expertise and skill of a driver. Autonomous driving will have its place, especially when driving in a desolate area in the middle of nowhere where the roads can go straight for miles. It will cut down on driver fatigue since they will not have to hold a steering wheel for the whole time they drive.
I personally wouldnt let my truck wander on its own. Ill say one thang i do agree with is long nights when u are on a straight away low traffic.
Wow, truck driver's should get paid more. Companies can't get out paying driver's. The real task is can the truck handle mountains and down grades. Make sure Pennsylvania is your first test state. If driverless trucks can do well there. Your in business.
in my opionion there be more accidents because your not gonna prevent them from getting into accidents with other vehicles, I wouldn't feel safe nor have my family walk across the street with self driving vehicles around, why would it be a truck first to hit the road and not a car? be billions apon billions of people out of a job if they go to self driving vehicles, and what about kids goin to school whats next gonna have a self driving school bus I wouldn't trust to let my kids ride that
CORPORATE AMERICA AT IT'S BEST . JUST ANOTHER WAY TO SCREW THE INATTENTIVE AMERICAN SOCIETY OUT OF JOBS. SO THAT CORPORATE AMERICA INCREASE PROFITS . GO BACK AND LISTEN TO EVERY WORD SPOKEN IN THIS VIDEO . MAKING LIES INTO TRUTHS AND TRUTH INTO LIES BY WAYS OF FEAR , THEY ALWAYS COUNT ON FEAR . YET EVERY TIME THEY SPEAK THERE IS ALWAYS MOTIVE AND IT IS NEVER IN THE INTEREST OF THE PEOPLE . PLEASE DON'T BELIEVE ME . GO EXAMINE AMERICAN HIS-TORY FROM START TO CURRENT DATE . A FUCKING LIE FROM THE START . FLEECING IT'S CITIZENS ON EVERY FORM IMAGINABLE . FUCKING SAD .AND EVERYONE OF YOU CORPORATE/CONGRESS LIARS WILL LICK THE DUST OFF MY FEET ONE DAY. EVEN IF YOU BREAK ME, KILL ME , THAT DAY IS STILL COMING AND THERE IS NOT A THING YOU CAN DO ABOUT THAT COMING DAY. NOT EVEN YOUR MONEY CAN CHANGE THAT.
How will HOS work?
Thinking of getting my cdl but this creates some uncertainty
I want to see this truck handle show and ice now
If I have to be up and in the driver seat... wtf is the point?
Why don't they make autonomous CEOs and politicians?
There is already one. Trump, he likes to make you pay attention to immigrants. While he lets automation do it's job. It's all part of the plan of big elite (Where trump is part of). He played dirty tricks to get certain people to vote on them... but then he used immigrants as a scape goat. Even though the problem isn't really with the immigrants. He FOOLED all the trump voters.
I call that smart technology
The only problem I see is that later on truck drivers will be unemployed, just saying.🤔
Oh no. The masses of dangerous, weekend CDL-farm certified, drug addicted truck drivers will be replaced by machines. What a loss that will be.
Chihuahua King I don't know if you have a job but if you do, I'm sure a robot can be programmed to take your place. We're all becoming obsolete, even you.
Lorenza Williams Yeah I have a job. And when the day comes where a cyborg replaces me I will adjust into another career.
@Chihuahua King. That's not what I said, you didn't comprehend my sentence, I said for truck drivers right now. No I'm not a truck driver, I was just stating a point of view on this topix not for future jobs, which what you say doesn't apply for everyone, now if you talk about the future a lot of things will be operated by robots, so education is the key and birth control to certain extent.
You should go into politics. You say a lot but nothing at the same time. Well done.
Everyone seems to be worried about losing their job but I think this could prove beneficial to drivers as well what if you could still get paid even double the money you go to bed for 10 hours set the truck for autopilot to drive another 10 hours your autonomous truck will be your co-driver that would be sweet especially with e logs
When are they going to test this in a snowstorm with a packed freeway?
Any modern airplane has auto-pilot but no human being would get on-board a flight with an empty cockpit. These are expensive toys designed to save a few bucks at the expense of the gullibility of the general public. You see a driverless truck going down a straight stretch of highway for a few miles with no incline, no adverse weather conditions, and you think you have a revolutionary idea.
a man must controll it ,,, real shit.
I think a semi automatic self driving vehicle is the best thing.
Silli Billi you are a moron
So its always connected to the Internet, then hacking would be my concern for this technology and the Internet of things
I want to see this thing when it is 4 or 5 years old with about 900,000kilometres on it, and you are never going to take the driver totally out of the picture as people are freaking out about, you will need a person with the truck to baby sit the load and rig in case of break down.
I see maintenance costs on this rig out of this world as this truck gets more and more miles on it.
What I want to know is why we are still using the wheel? Why isnt anti-grav hover tech being researched? cmon ppl
Driverless Cars, Driverless Trains, Driverless Cabs, Driverless trucks,Driverless Unmanned Aricraft sounds nice, now but will cause huge Job loss, Unemployment, and Labor issues as well as ethical, moral and legal issues in the future. We will be making laws that favor Machines more than Man and eventually this could lead to the end of Humanity.
I think we need to put curbs on this ASAP.
No thank you. computers are much safer.
+ruskodisco you know what else is much safer? A void
driving is a very advanced job. it is not a lower class job sir. the earth is far from over populated.
they are good as the progammer
oh shut the fuck up with that elitist godless, shit
At least 100 years away
Airplanes been autonomous since the 70s , and you still need 2 pilots so…
I hate scientists and nerds 4ever
I have an immediate problem with something that requires government regulation to put it in place.
Now I know why they keep bringing more terminators movies out... Tech is almost like an organisms feeding itself to keep on developing and improving throughout time. My take on all this, keep on hauling hard, invest in other productive fields and accept changes in order to make better choices..
Software taking control over vehicles has a long way to go in terms of those unpredictable conditions. Just look at Boeing
weird...reminds me of the movie transformers.
I like it
Pretty sure drivers will try to sleep while it drives you
Driverless trucks mean; The government who authorize them need fined or replaced. And the manufacturers who build them, should be fined or replaced. UNEMPLOYMENT LINES IN AMERICA ARE NO WAY CONSIDERED THE ANSWER TO SUCCESS. I think the bigger question is, why are they making drones, and driverless machines and computers to to do what we've been doing since the end of WWII. BEING NUMBER ONE IN THE WORLD.
Actually if there is an accidnet you can sue the carrier and no the driver because there isnt one.
America doesn't have the road conditions for autonomous trucks, they're really out dated, and in the other hand here's no satellite coverage in many areas in the U.S. Just with those 2 facts we have a gap of 15-20 yrs before they really kick in the high gear to replace all drivers but granted we will be replaced by this machines, we can't stop technology. This is the same argument of the 70s when they started replacing factory workers with higher tech machines like in the auto industry
this is cool idea but not practical. For the reason being that other people on the road are unpredictable a computer can't get it together when it's time to react with a teen driver or drunk driver or an accident right in front of it so what happens when the fuckin truck hit the scale house and has a air leak issue so simple that a seasoned driver could fix...
Roger Ruiz I agree but a seasoned driver isn't a certified mechanic or air brake certificate holder.
What happens when the driver gets tired because he's doing FUCK ALL and the system breaks down?
What happens when a child runs out on the road? Or an old person or a teenager on a mobile phone?
The first person or family that loses a loved one to this dangerous system, I hope they sue the makers, the transport company, the legislators and the Government for every fucking penny they've got.
Sure you could make a very convincing argument ( and they do ) that this will reduce human error but what about machine error or tampering?
I drive a truck and all you do is hit cruse control but you still have to steer and be alert and have FULL FUKING control.
so i supposed to sit in the driver's seat and do nothing just in case the truck beeps and needs me. F that
This truck will take longer to get to delivery. Following distance protocols. Irratatic driving patterns ahead , last minute construction decisions , Accidents. Of course it needs human intervention, someone has to shoulder the blame.
I don't get the whole still need a driver thing
So what's the point???
It may drive on its own but it cannot predict other drivers on the road if it gets too too close to a vehicle that cuts over in front of it it will make a complete stop instead of slowing down.. Complete stop=jack knife. Huge wreck= lives lost . manless planes and drones yes because they are in the air no one to hit
Autonomous vehicles are crap, totally. It will bring us Doom. We are getting closier to our extinction...
Jey King couldnt agree more
Its just going to increase accidents, lets say the truck bleeps to "take control" after observing some debris on road the driver thinks its not that serious and if it bleeps like this 7 8 times ,the driver ignores thinking it will just be just be some garbage on road but it comes out to be a human or a car or a bicycle.
I mean you the truck needs human to take control anytime than why would you buy a truck and a human to double your cost.
Gps doesnt even bring you to the correct shipper/reciever location half the time. Dont tell me your near autonomous trucks lol.
Ontop of that your now asking carries to spend an additional 50k per truck and still pay a operator wage. Noone is going otr for what they pay now let alone a pay cut.
20 seconds to takeover? It takes less than a second for a big rig to cross the line and kill someone, and you want my hands off the steering wheel? Really?
Plus the highway in Nevada is such an easy drive, I would feel better if it can drive let's say Pennsylvania.
Computers short circut tho, Anybody Remember Yule Brenner Future World n West World?
Bad bad bad idea
Hola hijo ahi te mando lo ultimo, pienso tu estara pensando en un camion como este.
Stupid trucks that need more funding from our government. I think he said driver assist many times. And also for some with hearing problems and competency issues. I will explain that he said there are times the driver will have to negotiate and its is actually alot of times and without drivers they are extremely deadly and stupid trucks. Now a 5 to 7 year old should comprehend this. I hope some are having sigh of relief. Deep breathes!!
Blow me on adapting to driverless trucks or cars, do you want to let your kids cross the street with that crap on the road? How about the loss of jobs? Or a computer hacker takes them over? I say we rely on computers way to much.
Yeah because truck accidents never happen already......
They going to need a long talk talk with the federal government dot drivers need. Tickets and fines I don't think the government is going to let them off the hook like that they'll be losing too much money.
Safety my ASS!! They just want to eliminate paying drivers.
rum and coke32. It wont happen they will spend more money fixing crashed technology and up keeping everythang on all the trucks will cost more money than just keep regular drivers . probaly cost millions for one truck . vs.thousands and a regular driver
Computers fail. CONSEQUENCES WILL FOLLOW against the manufacturers!!!! 🙂
Not true when you not paying attention you get sleep
No more lot lizards that's for certain. But also no one to call in trucking cross country at night from east or west of the rockies to George.
NO servers and no cooks at truck stops. No drivers of course.
Or the myriad other employees associated with the human side of the trucking industry that like any other industry has a culture and pride.
Let's all live in little boxes in machine cities waiting for disposal.
A plaugue on all of their plans.
1percent doesn't want people in there lives. JADE HELM 15 look it up
Maybe empty ass Nevada no Chicago and New York
I can't see how the driver is gonna get any rest with no one behind the wheel . By the time these rigs are on the road human will be replaced with a real walking talking robot . Dam shame future people will be jobless and homeless . Hell shouldn't need weigh stations anymore at that time guess a lot of people will be without jobs
Nope. I'll be scared seeing one of these shits on the roads.
It's going to be a while for this is perfected but eventually, this will make truck drivers obsolete in the next thirty to fifty years. Possibly sooner, I only hope there is a plan to retrain the millions who will be unemployed. Capitalism cannot work without consumers. You cannot have consumers with nobody being employed due to automation.
Tesla has cars
