🇨🇳 China’s not waiting for fully driverless trucks everywhere. One human drives the lead vehicle and a convoy of autonomous trucks follows right behind. It’s a practical middle step that could get freight automation working in logistics hubs years before open-road robotaxis take over. Writer: Lynn

We are so far behind. All of our money goes to other countries, supporting millions of Iilegals, and Congress’s grifting. Our train system is medevil. Our highways & bridges crumbling

LOL so basically a train

China already have quarries with 100% driverless trucks and diggers. We are still building bombs and military nonsense with AI and robotics while China is doing that also in addition to building real world solutions with it.

lol trucks on untested self drive? What could possible go wrong? 😂

Chinese investment in science education is paying off big time......

Hooray. Road trains. 🙄

1st one is the Navio L5 from Russia

So the driver’s basically the convoy’s Uber driver, just without the rating system. 🫶

CHINA NUMBA ONE

Imagine getting stuck behind that on an Interstate going through the mountains.

The most important question in the West is......what gender do the driverless trucks identify as. The fact that the US is years behind on everything is definitely not of concern.

In America people busy making only fans

Impressive. The future is now!

Transformers Autobots ... lets roll Optimus Prime Mini Me Version Driverless Trucks

Good 🤷🏼‍♀️

They cooked everybody

@RagunathaR That’s the kind of innovation you would expect from Tesla.

If the human driver got tired and drove the lead truck into a ditch, then what?

We have that too, although limited to two trailers for now. :)

The first truck in that video looks malnourished. Needs to eat a cheeseburger or something.

One driver up front eating all the edge cases while the trucks behind only have to do the thing they're already good at, that's how freight autonomy ships years early.

This is a great idea. You can deliver 10 trucks with one driver. I don’t know what will happen if one or more stops in red light

You are right. They don’t wait.

Even if a single driver leads a three autonomous trucks（thisis easily）,80% of truck drivers will lose their jobs within five years. Skill training for the displaced workforce is a new market

ok so we're NOT waiting for full autonomy everywhere. honestly that's the smart play. i literally drive past these truck routes in Hangzhou daily, the follow-the-leader thing is real. the middle step IS the product. realistic path while the US is still debating robotaxi rules

This going to affect china growth in the next 10 years All this robot thing will affect them , letting robot take control of jobs that belong to human being is ridiculous and one day is going to be bad for them Write my word down

They steal @Tesla Ideas because Tesla has genius engineers and ideas and China knows it.

It’s called a train

Unfortunately, america is stuck in middle east. After Afghanistan and Iraq first and second wars, now it’s Iran war. America thinks that it needs wars (like ww1 and ww2) to advance.

@elonmusk all will be automated and data will be exchanged in real time for traffic, accidents, closed roads, etc... People will be able to travel long distances while working, sleeping, playing. We have all what's needed to make that happen.

China's science and technology are the most advanced in the world. In less than 80 years since the founding of the People's Republic, the country has transformed from one of the most backward nations into one of the wealthiest and most powerful. It is truly magnificent.

If you need a leader and a follower column, why don't study Train?

I wonder why they don’t trust their AI like we do. Can you imagine Elon’s driver-less semi-trailer trucks not being able to move without a guide truck - WTH

What happens when the driver has to sh*t
