That seems to be a balanced article with a heavy dose of reality tossed in as comment.
I am seeing some pushback in retail by customers. They don't seem to like "self-service" check-out and the stores are going back to human checkout. But that seems to be the only place at this point. Maybe the autopilot cabs will work, maybe they won't but that's still a long way off. Over the road truckers... same deal.
It probably won't be so much a revolution as a creeping line in the sand.
