Artificial intelligence will remake global logistics

According to Sean Kilcarr (writing in Fleet Owner), many of the trends in logistics boil down to technological advancements. I agree with that view. And the good thing about it is that these technical changes allow evolutionary as well as disruptive innovation, and over time will move the entire field to greater efficiency and more effective performance for each customer, perhaps much faster than we think. Many of the changes are straightforward application of technology using industrial engineering techniques. They will, however, require a highly educated and technologically literate work force.
