U.S. Transportation has become increasingly efficient with advances in engine technologies, infrastructure upgrades and more sophisticated logistic networks. The next wave will be different. The automation of transportation networks is transforming them into continually optimizing systems. These systems consume less energy for each unit moved, work longer, and reduce labor bottlenecks. They also reshape the demand for fuels, electricity, and other resources. Software increasingly dictates the way energy is consumed in the United States and how goods are transported. In Texas, driverless trucks haul commercial loads while AI is deployed on Mississippi River tugboats. Rails are increasingly relying on automated...

John Rodgerson, the Chief Executive Officer of Azul Airlines, said that the airline expects to reduce capacity again in the third quarter following recent major cuts.

This was due to the disruptions caused by the U.S. and Israeli war against Iran, which pushed up jet fuel prices. Rodgerson said, "The fuel crisis peaked in the second quarter and it...
