Such hand wringing has happened for hundreds of years. Yes, technology has regularly caused short term shifts in people's employment. But the human world has one important element, humans. It exists for their benefit only. There are few people doing hand weaving now, but machine woven clothes are a net benefit. In my long career I shifted roles a number of times. Some people will need to do that.
