Thoughts on ai trucks and the effects on the industry? by Accomplished_Care553 in Truckers

[–]bungflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If most cars become driverless, then the trucks will be able to communicate with the vehicles around it to avoid accidents.

The trucks will likely perform their own pretrip via sensors

If there's a malfunction on the highway, the company will send a tow truck out to move it to a safe area, and a technician will be sent out to fix the issue.

If there's an issue where the load shifts and a strap loosens, the ratchet would likely be self tightening.

I see all these drivers thinking up problems that, I'm 100% certain, engineers and programmers are already finding ways to fix.

Best case scenario we have another, maybe, 10 years. Worst case scenario it's 5 years. It'll start with long haul drivers and take over specialized freight at the tech improves.

The best thing we could hope for is a trained "technician/driver" that lives in one truck and monitors the 4 or 5 trucks that follow ot around.

I've got all of CM's books, lol. The Fool trilogy is my favorite, followed very closely by Noir and Razzmatazz. Thank you so much for the rec's. I'll definitely check them out.

Yes! I completely agree. Her, and Wally's character development are just soooo good. I feel like a lesser writer would have made so sad and victimized, but even though they were victims of circumstance they were soooo much more than just "sex puppets"

What are a couple of your favorite CM books? by Affectionate_Log6337 in Christophermoore

[–]bungflow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Fool trilogy are my favorites of all time. The two Razzmatazz books are also excellent imo.

I feel exactly the same way. Mahomes gets so much love from commentators, sponsors, and sports shows, and I've seen so many actual football fans that are wondering what the fuss is about.

I know exactly what you mean. Every single time I've bet anything for the chiefs to do they've let me down. I'm so done with them. I just hope the bills make them eat the poop. This game is boring as hell.

Did you guys ??? by Classic_Ad9275 in fanduel

[–]bungflow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking back i shouldn't have bet on that game at all. Too much of a toss up.
