I do not understand what "higher complexity tasks" you think a bunch of unemployed truckers are going to do
It is likely that part of the reason they are truckers is because they aren't really suited for higher complexity tasks
I'm not trying to be an asshole. I respect the hard work and long hours that truckers do. I don't think they are stupid, and I greatly value the service they provide to society
But the reality is trucking is still a relatively low skill job, mostly filled by people who are not really equipped for high skill jobs
At some point if we automate all of the low skill jobs, we're going to have to deal with the fact that a ton of people who aren't cut out for complex work are now unemployed (and probably poor, and pissed off)
