Review of GeeCee
Posted: 15 Jul 2025, 15:37
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "GeeCee" by Edward M. Krauss.]
Many accidents on our highways happen due to tired, overworked, and stressed truck drivers, whose pay is determined by the number of miles they drive each day. Walt Wizniski of Walt's Forward Trucking and Frank Stevenson, CEO of MHR Investors, LLC, developed a self-driving truck that can think and make decisions faster than humans can due to its cameras, GPS, and software. Reduced or non-existent shipping and employer costs not only reduce the truck company owner's expenses but also consumers' costs for groceries, furniture, and other goods. Who would not want this? The millions of truck drivers without jobs to support their families, that's who. Why did a trucking company get involved with something that would have such a drastic impact on truck drivers?
The storyline felt realistic with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the Fabricators, Manufacturers, and Assemblers United Front (FMAUF), the Consolidated Shippers and Freighters of America (CSFA), and other entities being included. It was easy to relate to how middle-class Americans reacted to the loss of so many jobs and the importance of votes to our elected officials. I enjoyed the debates between the different parties about the pros and cons of self-driving eighteen-wheelers, as they pointed out many facts about the trucking industry that I never thought about. A few examples include the absence of speeding tickets versus speeding tickets, employer costs, and shipping costs that impact consumer costs. I appreciated the integrity in the national road test, which allowed opponents to contribute to its design.
In my opinion, GeeCee: AI Waits for No One by Edward M. Krauss has no negative aspects. The lack of errors attests to the fact that this well-written book has been exceptionally well-edited. I enjoyed learning about the trucking industry and the many difficulties our hard-working truck drivers face every day while providing us with the products we need. I encountered no reason not to give this book a perfect rating of 5 out of 5 stars.
Mature readers who are interested in the trucking industry or how technology can advance so far that it takes jobs away from humans should read this book. This book may be disturbing to individuals whose jobs have already been taken over by technology. For example, self-checkouts and automated teller machines have replaced cashiers and tellers. I will also caution sensitive readers that this book contains non-borderline profanity.
