    Ep. 7. The $35 Billion Blind Spot: Why Trucking and Logistics Has Been Slow to Embrace AI

    Cargo theft costs the American economy up to $35 billion a year. Strategic theft — where criminals impersonate carriers, forge documents, and reroute entire truckloads using cyber tactics — has risen 1,500% since 2021. In 2025, estimated losses surged 60% to nearly $725 million in confirmed incidents alone, with the true number almost certainly many times higher. And yet trucking and logistics — the industry most targeted by organized crime in the United States — has been among the slowest to adopt the AI-powered surveillance and monitoring tools that could change the equation entirely. Why? Ed Burnett spent more than two decades as a senior security executive protecting one of the world's largest and most complex logistics operations. He has seen cargo theft evolve from opportunistic crime to sophisticated international networks that operate like legitimate businesses, complete with logistics coordinators, document forgers, and cyber specialists. He knows what the industry has tried, what hasn't worked, and what AI can now do that nothing else could before. In this episode, Ed and Lauren dig into the uncomfortable truth about why the most crime-beset industry in America has been so slow to embrace its most powerful available defense — and what it will take to change that.
