Automation will continue to happen as companies push to eliminate labor.
Major players are pouring **** tons of money into artificial intelligence.
It's not a matter of if. It's a matter of when.
More broadly, Cohen will go into personal and character accusations against Trump, saying the president made racist remarks in front of him such as questioning the intelligence of African-Americans, according to the person.
As word of Cohen’s expected damning accounts leaked out Tuesday morning, the White House and Trump supporters began pushing back against the president’s former lawyer, highlighting his criminal record and deceitful history.
“Disgraced felon Michael Cohen is going to prison for lying to Congress and making other false statements,” White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement that didn’t address Cohen’s specific allegations.
“Sadly, he will go before Congress this week and we can expect more of the same,” she added. “It’s laughable that anyone would take a convicted liar like Cohen at his word, and pathetic to see him given yet another opportunity to spread his lies.”
On Capitol Hill, Trump’s closest allies echoed the sentiment.
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) tweeted: “Tomorrow @OversightDems will hold their first big hearing. For their first big witness, they will roll out the red carpet for Michael Cohen. … Here’s the problem: Michael Cohen is going to prison in two months for several crimes, including LYING TO CONGRESS.”
Trump’s lawyers did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Perhaps the most attention on Wednesday will center on Cohen’s account of a payment made to Daniels during the 2016 election to buy her silence about an alleged affair. For the first time publicly, Cohen plans to accuse the president of acting criminally in the matter, a charge Trump has long denied.
Cohen pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations for making the pay off. But court documents also implicated Trump in the scheme, saying he was a key player in the plot.
Separately, the person familiar with Cohen’s testimony confirmed a report in The Wall Street Journal that Cohen will accuse Trump of manipulating his finances for business and personal purposes, including inflating and deflating his net worth and avoiding property taxes.
Additionally, the former lawyer plans to discuss tweets from Trump that Cohen said were meant to intimidate him. Cohen was slated to go before the House committee in January, but his legal team delayed the appearance, citing threats against him and his family.
The president tweeted on Dec. 16: “Remember, Michael Cohen only became a 'Rat' after the FBI did something which was absolutely unthinkable & unheard of until the Witch Hunt was illegally started. They BROKE INTO AN ATTORNEY’S OFFICE! Why didn’t they break into the DNC to get the Server, or Crooked’s office?”
The person familiar with Cohen’s testimony said Trump’s use of the word “rat” “has a meaning for people who are in prison.”
But in a text on Tuesday, Giuliani dismissed such insinuations, insisting that the president was merely referencing media reports about potential ties between Cohen's business dealings and the Russian mafia.
“All the tweets did was to point out the allegations in the media already about his and his family connections to Russian-Ukrainian organized crime and how that is probably part of the reason that the [Southern District of New York] told the court they would not take his cooperation unless he fully cooperated," he said. "It’s absurd to say that any one of us threatened him."
What evidence do you have of that?
You know how ****ing crazy it is we even have phones? You know we actually have self-driving vehicles on the road and it's only a decade old technology? Even if it doesn't completely phase out all drivers which it won't, it's completely naive to think it won't leave a huge impact.
Just a few decades ago being able to video call someone from the other side of the world in real time was crazy.
My evidence is I build the roads
Sure you can replace a small part of it but full blown automation will never happen. Driving is about 10% of my job.
Hands down, and it'll probably stay that way for quite some time. There also appears to be some form of cognitive decline at work, possibly dementia or Alzheimer's, given the difference in his coherency compared to 5-10 years ago. He has always had the same linguistic mannerisms and vocabulary but at least he managed to make it sound a bit more coherent. Now it's just a complete word salad unless he's reading off of a teleprompter. When he goes off-script it sounds like the rambling of a senile madman on a lot of drugs.Quite possibly the dumbest President ever.
You remind me of one of those economist in 1999 calling the US recession proof. Better yet, like a coal miner in the 1970s thinking things will always be wavy. Completely ignoring the flankMy evidence is I build the roads

That immigrant mentalityYang2020
They can be and they will be. There is so much money being invested in autonomous vehicles.Sure for simple stuff. But you aren’t replacing a lot of these drivers like myself who drive off road all day or someone who does routes like ups backing into 200 year old loading docks made for horse and carriages.
If automation is going to assist more than replace the next thing is going to be training to handle said automatic trucks.
Autonomy will be used to assist drivers more than take away jobs. There's some things an autonomous vehicle just can't do on its own, period.
Why would humans get less pay for the same amount of time spent in the vehicle though
There's more to truck transport than driving point A to B
Are we sure about that though? I just saw a Verizon commercial for a surgeon performing heart surgery remotely via a Skynet T-800 looking robotic arm
I'm starting to think any damn thing is possible.
In simple terms:
If you do a job and now say 20% of that job is eliminated, why should I still compensate you equally for that time. Especially when I have to pay for the capitial that is doing the job now?
Even with high demand for the sector, the wages don't reflect what they should. That points to drivers not having sufficient market power. So when companies roll out these systems, they have the power to suppress driver wages to pay for them. Maybe even to the point they come out ahead overall.
I am not saying that truck drivers will go away, but their jobs will change in a way that could lead to lower wages.
Yeah still a lot of nuance to it, ie fog, right now AI can't see through fog like we can.Yup. Even the developers of the trucks themselves say they will require humans on board for a long time ahead and some tasks a truck just won't be able to perform on its own period.
I used to think how some folks in here think but actually being in a position where I have to drive a CDL vehicle I've looked more into it and it's not the big bad boogeyman it's been made out to be. At least not yet.
Travel industry should be more worried about autonomy than truck drivers.
