You are probably overestimating the speed at which these new technologies destroy jobs. It's not like today someone invents a self driving rig, tomorrow every single truck driver is out of business. Adoption won't be so fast.

It'll be a while before anyone is going to trust a load of valuable goods with an AI. There are security/theft issues, edgecase AI failure issues, loading unloading, etc.

We've seen entire industries leave the USA. Probably within your lifetime.

That said this can have devastating effects on economies. A lot of cities in the rust belt have felt this impact.

But the opposite can happen. One of the huge reasons US companies offshore production is because of labor costs. If you reduce the man-hours / product, it makes sense to open back up domestically.
