I believe the push if for single pilot cockpits, but still having multiple pilots. Currently from transatlantic flights you need pilots in the cockpit and then another crew for the 2nd shift who spend the first half of the flight sleeping. Transatlantic flights also spend most of their time in un-congested airspace with usually little activity. With single pilot cockpits you would only need one pilot awake at a time but you would still two on board and in an emergency the second pilot could be woken up.
Short hops are harder to switch to being single pilot as they spend most of their flight in congested airspace over populated areas and multiple pilots help with managing the workload.
