Hey more jobs for taxi drivers and safer to do from the comfort of your home. Just like a drone pilot!
Who would have thought that Taxi drivers one day would be able to work from home?
Lots of taxi drivers are already reckless. Imagine if they can drive remotely!
They'll be driving multiple cars at the same time, while drunk.
Can't wait for the first 8 year old to be on trial for manslaughter because his dad had to go to the bathroom but didn't want to lose his fare.
That's not how any of this works.
It's a hyperbole.
Just like a drone pilot!
Why must you drone on???
Nah, they'll still have to come into the office 3-4 days a week for "collaboration" and "cross-team building". But they can do their drone whatsyhootzit from their cramped cubicles!
No, it's not. Many companies are doing this monitoring at 10:1 ratios. It hurts my brain that so many people don't understand what a massive industry changing number that is. Even at early maturity these systems can reduce workforce by 90%.
Which is a good thing right?
The remaining problem being not enough political pressure to get universal basic income going.
For the cab industry yes. Fuck everyone of them. Zero accountability.
Jebus Christ, it was a joke.
I'm happy that the number of blow-jobs-while-working will increase for this sector
