So banking wasn't a specialist skill?Originally Posted by R650R
Tax accountant book keeping wasn't a specialist skill, now Xero is here?
A librarian wasn't a specialist skill before Google?
You don't even need to be an astronaut to go to space now!
The list goes on and on..
And your saying an uneducated truck driver earning barely above minimum wage is a specialist skill?
Really?
Perhaps so long as it's not your industry then it's fine?

Back in reality Europe didn’t receive any tesla Y shipments in October.
The sudden sales surge was driven by bulk arrivals of Tesla vehicles that had been ordered months earlier, which skews the overall picture.
month-by-month European sales data from industry analyst JATO Dynamics shows Tesla is not yet a mainstay among the Top 10 sellers because vehicles arrive in peaks and troughs.Year-to-date European sales for the Tesla Model Y are estimated to be between 85,000 to 90,000, which ranks it outside the Top 10 sellers when all months so far in 2022
Europe's top selling car for 2022 is the VW Golf

The horse shoe maker (blacksmith) became more in demand as motor vehicle required skilled metal fabricators. They may not have been making so many horse shoes, but they sure were making other things in far greater quantities
it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.

US electric car specialist Tesla has admitted failing to meet claims it previously made about its autonomous driving technology, according to documents filed in a class action lawsuit.
In April 2019, Mr Musk claimed Tesla cars would have software that would not require the driver's attention by the end of that year, with driverless 'robo taxis' ready by 2020.
It was alleged Tesla's semi-autonomous driving technology has not fulfilled claims made by the company – both in terms of the expected timeline as well as the included features – after some customers paid as much as $US15,000 ($AU22,300) to add so-called Full Self Driving to their vehicles.
US electric car specialist Tesla has defended itself against claims of fraud by explaining its autonomous-driving technology has simply failed to meet self-imposed goals – rather than mislead consumers.

I agree, when one industry comes to an end , another industry is created but those who hang on to the past will find out the hard way.

Isn't advancements in AI amazing
Can you build a cost analysis between a Tesla semi and a Standard diesel truck
A.I generated response:
Sure, I can help you compare the costs of a Tesla semi with a standard diesel truck. Here are some factors to consider when conducting a cost analysis:
Purchase price: The purchase price of a Tesla semi is expected to be higher than that of a standard diesel truck. However, the price of a Tesla semi includes the cost of the electric drivetrain, while the price of a diesel truck does not include the cost of a diesel engine.
Fuel costs: One of the main advantages of a Tesla semi is that it has significantly lower fuel costs compared to a diesel truck. Electricity is generally cheaper than diesel fuel, so operating a Tesla semi can save you money on fuel costs over the long term.
Maintenance costs: The maintenance costs of a Tesla semi may be lower than those of a diesel truck due to the simplicity of the electric drivetrain and the lack of an internal combustion engine. However, the costs may vary depending on the specific make and model of the vehicle and the type of maintenance required.
Range and charging infrastructure: The range of a Tesla semi is expected to be significantly longer than that of a diesel truck, which means it may be able to complete more deliveries without needing to stop for refueling. However, the availability of charging infrastructure for electric vehicles may be a limiting factor for some fleets.
Government incentives: Depending on your location, you may be eligible for government incentives or tax credits for purchasing an electric vehicle. These incentives could significantly reduce the overall cost of ownership of a Tesla semi.
Overall, the cost of owning and operating a Tesla semi compared to a diesel truck will depend on a variety of factors, including the price of electricity and diesel fuel, maintenance costs, range, and government incentives. It may be helpful to conduct a detailed cost analysis to determine which option is more cost-effective for your specific needs.

The 2 advantages are yet to be fully-realised with today's technology.
1. when power generation is green, the carbon emissions from powering the truck will be zero.
2. automation and safety from having computer controlled trucks that don't rely on humans or suffer from human errors that would improve road safety.
both my points above measure costs in human and environmental terms which are arguably more important than dollars. There are also still issues with the production of electric motors and batteries, although this is the same for smartphones, laptops etc... and people seem to have no problem buying them.

Would a fully autonomous motorcycle make any sense?
AI generated response
It is possible that a fully autonomous motorcycle could have some potential benefits and applications. For example, an autonomous motorcycle could potentially be used for military or emergency response operations, where a human rider might be at risk. Autonomous motorcycles could also potentially be used for delivery or transportation services, where the motorcycle could travel to a destination without a human rider.
However, there are also a number of challenges that would need to be addressed in order to develop a fully autonomous motorcycle that is safe and practical for use on public roads. One of the main challenges is the ability of the autonomous motorcycle to accurately perceive and navigate its environment, including other vehicles, pedestrians, and road conditions. Another challenge is the development of a control system that can safely and effectively control the motorcycle's movements and balance.
Overall, it is not clear at this time whether a fully autonomous motorcycle would be a viable or practical option for widespread use.

What are you gibbering about?
An autonomous motorcycle would not be fun. People ride bikes for fun.
Unless they live in a city of 10 million people with massively congested roads and are skint. In this scenario those riders want more money so they can buy a car. A car can carry far more chickens.

No. Riding a motorcycle is mainly about the rider experience and the journey.

Maybe AI sex would be more efficient involving more orgasims per hour than humans could achieve.
You might get outsourced, although I expect that already happened during a long haul truck trip from Tauranga in the 2010s.
Maybe R666 and mashed potato should hook up as the sadest people on the site?; there's someone for everyone. Don't let preconceived gender dismorphia define you.
Don't you look at my accountant.

That kinda reminds me of the movie Her starring Scarlet Johansson and Joaquin Phoenix. The idea of humans having relationships with AI is interesting, there are already apps that claim to offer virtual relationships. With the solitude of trucking so long by themselves, I wouldn't be surprised if some truckers aren't already using AI relationship apps while they're on the road.
