Yeah ultimately it could be a sort of hybrid where the AI drives until it encounters a situation it is high risk to handle, like crowded street, then a human is alerted to take over. A pool of humans could then manage exponentially far more than one to one vehicles depending on how good the AI is.

That's a huge money saver.

Additionally recruiting truck drivers is difficult to do so maybe having a work from home job would make it easier.

It's not that it's point less it's that some people just don't see the point.

I don't know just seems like an idea worth pursuing for a million reasons, including being able to outsource driving or find the best drivers in the world. Also.mikitary reasons. Save lives with a remote controlled tank.
