The Shift to Driverless Trucks Will Open Up Fulfilling Careers

One of the events we make certain we block out time for at CES is IDC’s annual Analyst Briefing. It’s the best tech overview/snapshot you’ll find at the “we will change the world” event. While Tom Mainelli, devices and AR/VR VP/program manager, gave us some inputs before the presentations regarding the state of products/companies (more in the future); the discussion shifted to autonomous vehicles, which were everywhere at the show. One of the ladies at our table quickly corrected us when we ventured that autonomous was a slow work in progress until probably 2025. She quickly said, “You obviously haven’t looked at the backbone of business everywhere … trucking.”
