I don't know that I agree with that completely. There are some manufacturers that I send drivers into who don't exactly have the easiest dock to pull into. I know that a million sensors on the trucks and trailers will tell the AI exactly how to back into the dock, but I still don't see it being adopted by a large percentage of the industry. Some of the product we move is millions of dollars worth of goods on a single truck. I don't know that I personally would trust AI for that. I would be much more comfortable with an experienced driver manually driving that across the country.
Then you have someone to park the truck when it gets there, and you pay for one hour of work and not 25
