Will this be the end for UPS and FEDEX workers? Self Driving Cars with a delivery Robot inside - GoFuckYourself.com

crockett · 05-28-2019, 07:14 AM

Well shit.. here I thought those guys would be somewhat safe due to needing to hand deliver..

I think people do not understand the seriousness of how many pop people AI will put out of work.

All the dopes over at reddit think it will all be ok because everyone will get basic income...

Ummm yeah.. sure, we cant even get Republicans to fund rebuilding roads and bridges much less a working affordable health care..

If you aren't a fetus they dont give a shit yet somehow everything will change and we all get basic income..

Seems like a dumb idea to me, I can see an self driven van arriving at your addresses and then you go out and get the parcel, and the parcels are all tagged so if you take the wrong one out of the van an alarm goes off, that could be done with technology now, without the half a million dollar droid in the back.

Robots more likely to be upstairs fucking your wife

Of course none of this is happening in the USA anytime soon as only Huawei have the tech to run them on a mass scale... maybe in more advanced places like China.

I guess they'll be needing to schedule deliveries then as well

It will get stolen along with the van and all of its content....or shot to pieces at least..

What would be the point to do that? They are at your address you would be the first suspect. I would assume these thing would have cameras everywhere.

I think we will see a hybrid of sorts for this kind of thing. A self-driving truck with an actual person in it. That person can sort packages and keep things straight while the truck drives to the locations then the driver hops out and delivers the package.

Of course, robots that deliver could be the future, but there are just way too many variables for them to happen any time soon.

That said, I think in the next 20 years we will see a massive increase in robots/AI/automation with many people losing their jobs.

VRPdommy · 05-28-2019, 02:12 PM

Relax, the tech is a long way off.

How do you stop anyone from 'stealing' them ?

Anyway, think of the potential law suites for injury/damage claims!
Not as cheap as it appears.
What do you think will happen when kids find out you can throw a beach ball in front of a self driver and create havoc.
There are plenty of other sensors that can be triggered.
Long, Long way off.

That robots very cool and will be 5-10 years out.

In my area of south east Orange county Pizza Hut & Amazon have been polling people on if we'd go-to our driveway or parking lot to pick up future deliveries from a driverless vehicle.

Don't forget how cheap these bastards are & how fast they want deliveries done. That robot is slow as fuck and will not get to normal delivery persons deliveries done in one day

Amazon is so cheap they want to populate their video games, virtual reality, clothing apps, etc. with 3D scans of real people. They want people to take time out of their day, come into their location, spend an hour or more and get a 3D scan of their body to be used in whatever way Amazon wants to use it and what compensation will you get? You will get a $25 Amazon gift certificate. That's it! There's no way they're paying big bucks for a slow robot to deliver packages time soon

CurrentlySober · 05-28-2019, 03:27 PM

I wood wipe poo all over the robot so as it nice and smelly and sticky 4 its next delivery...

SilentKnight · 05-28-2019, 05:51 PM

Cool-lookin' robot - but they said it was designed to 'look human'.

Looks more like a robotic praying mantis IMO.

King Mark · 05-28-2019, 05:59 PM

Not for nothing, but in my teens I woulda robbed all them robots.

By then these guys will grow up and will know how to shoot out cameras and blow up the uplinks. ;)

These guys will shoot up their school and kill the survivors at church before lighting the parents up at the bank and finally taking out any relatives at a concert first

So no worries...

We will probably never see this in our lifetime with the big carriers. I have been doing contract work 3 nights per week for 1 of them for the past year. They are getting ready to do a big roll out in 2020 with an upgrade to the way they track trucks/drivers/deliveries.

The current system they use is so antiquated when I first saw it I couldn't believe it. Nothing is centralized, to check on a shipment or location of driver/truck you have to have about 8 screens open and cross reference between them. Some of it is still in DOS.

The new system they are putting into place addresses some of these issues, however, by the time it rolls out it will still be 10 years outdated.

Companies like this hate embracing new technologies. Cost and retraining of people. They expect this new software roll out in 2020 to cost well over a billion dollars.

Automation is already taking millions of jobs and the replacement jobs often pay shit.
