- Driverless… AI to drive
- Travel Between Dallas and Houston
Article Today, Dallas:
Trucks that drive themselves are now on the road between Dallas and Houston. These trucks don’t need a driver. They use computers called Artificial Intelligence (AI) to drive. This is a big change for how things are moved from one place to another. Experts think it might mean fewer jobs for truck drivers in the future.
Special Sensors and Cameras…
These trucks have special sensors and cameras. They use AI to see the road and drive safely. Right now, they go back and forth between Dallas and Houston. This trip is about 240 miles. It’s a test to see how well the trucks work. If it goes well, these trucks might be used on other roads in the country.
People Worried…
Some people are worried about truck drivers losing their jobs. There are millions of truck drivers in the US. If these self-driving trucks become common, it could affect their jobs. But the companies that make these trucks say they are safer. They also use less gas and cost less money to run. These companies believe that driverless trucks will make roads safer.
Computers Don’t Mistake…
They say computers don’t make the same mistakes people do. Also, these trucks can drive all the time, day and night, so more goods can be moved faster. Experts think this new technology could really change how transportation works. We will have to wait and see how these changes affect everyone, especially people who work as truck drivers.
