    For self driving trucks, my concern is that we're not preparing for the economic impact of rendering a whole industry obsolete. There are over 2 million CDL holders in the US, and the implementation of self driving tech will put a lot of people out of work without a plan to prepare for the unemployed. A more efficient way to transport freight would be to improve America's rail network and increase rail volume. Not to mention the safety concerns of self driving tech in general.

      @@AndrewBlair6700 I did trucking school 2 summers ago and I worried about it as well before I even got hired. People told me I was wasting my money and soon there would be no need for it. In 2 years I made enough money to pay off some loans, most. Notably my truck payment. Built up a damn good amount in savings while also feeding myself and my family and open doors to several careers that partially involve driving mixed with labor. I was worried about self driving 2 years ago and I’m still out here making good money but I will come off the road in the next several years. Self driving is without a doubt a question of when and not if but dont let people or Google scare you into thinking it’s next month.

    The 3rd Air Taxi is the way to go. Autonomous. Make it a bus line, with a pre-determined route. Simplify. Don't let customers choose a destination. Pick popular and busy departure point, landing point. Across congested highways. In fact, you can have them fly above the roadway, to minimize time over residences/property.

    • @grenzviel4480
      @grenzviel4480 8 місяців тому +2

      until battery density and charging is improved, none of these will truly be practical. Helicopters are still better for emergencies because they also carry extra people (and supplies) who can tend to, and monitor the patient while getting to the hospital. Not to mention, the power requirements are way higher because emergencies don't always happen on the greatest of weather conditions. It needs to be able to resist and fly against a certain level of wind, all this adding a LOT of weight. In the end, it's all about carrying capacity and ease of use. Batteries take forever to charge, compared to refueling with fuel. You'd need to be able to hotswap batteries to make it practical, but then you run into a logistics problem of needing batteries from the departure area and the destination, which means all batteries would start needing to be tracked for safety, etc. Batteries would also need to be standardized etc etc. But then what about new models? Even drones from the same company update their battery design in just a few years, whereas aircraft from the 1960s can use modern fuel (Avgas). Basically, these things are a long way away from being practical to the general public. I say they should consider focusing on hydrogen powered engines/motors instead of depending on batteries.
