Most Driving Jobs Will Go Away. What Happens Next?

More than five million people in the U.S. make a living driving taxis, buses, vans, trucks Uber's and Lyft's. Some drive for money part-time, while others do so full-time. But some self-driving car companies are predicting their technology will be on the open roads, en masse, as early as 2020. That means that millions of people could be out of work in less than three years. In this episode, Caroline and Chip speak with more than a dozen drivers about how they are thinking about their career prospects as we headed toward a driverless future. Padmasree Warrior, the CEO of self-driving car startup NIO, also joins them to bring the perspective of an executive who's helping bring this technology to market.
