Surveyed Truckers Skeptical Self-Driving Trucks Will Happen Soon.
From Mark Zuckerberg on Facebook, during a visit to Iowa 80, The World's Largest Truck Stop: "I asked a number of truckers what they think about self-driving cars and trucks and what they think about the future. Everyone I met was skeptical self-driving trucks would replace jobs for different reasons. Some thought it would be impossible to pack all the sensors you need to deal with things like weather into trucks. Others thought computers could handle the interstate but not the last mile to the store. And some truckers think we'll end up with something like autopilot on planes -- with trucks driving themselves with people in the cab. From all the research I've seen, I'm confident we'll solve these problems. But it's interesting that people in the industry don't believe this will happen soon." Link to full post and comments here .
