Serious question, I saw a self-driving delivery bot in Denver last month and it got me thinking.
On one side, it's a huge step for logistics and safety. On the other, I'm worried about what it means for delivery jobs. What's your take?

Oh man, I saw one of those in Austin! It was just rolling down the sidewalk like it was no big deal. Super cool tech, but yeah, I had the exact same worry about all the delivery drivers and warehouse jobs. Feels like we're speeding toward a future with way fewer of those positions.

Yeah @thomas_palmer, what jobs do you think will be left for people without a college degree?

Look at the new jobs this tech will create instead. Someone has to build, fix, and watch over these bots, which could be good paying work. The worry about lost jobs misses the new chances that will pop up.
