Yes I did some of this at an old telecoms job. It was incredibly obvious that an automated system could put 5-10 people out of work depending on the sophistication of the implementation. I started automating my own analysis job and left before spreading it or letting it work without super vision. Definitely a lot of low level knowledge worker jobs can be evaporated.

> telecom

That's the industry I'm currently working on... they're generally regressive and have shot themselves in the foot in regards to tech and ease-of-use for a lot of their solutions.
