That’s possible, but my gut feeling is that this turns out to the the same as the DARPA grand challenge moment for self driving cars.

It was an absolutely amazing accomplishment. I legitimately thought I could hold out long enough that my next car would be fully self driving. Truckers were an endangered species.

But here we are 20 years later, and we’re still almost there.

We’ve made amazing progress and I love the self driving features I do have on my car, but how many jobs have been replaced by self driving cars?
