I think that's the wrong thing to worry about. Buggy whip craftsman, whalers, lamplighters, and millions of defunct roles shouldn't be something we worry about. Progress shouldn't be stunted to give people jobs. Those people, often of low skill, need to either adapt and create their own innovations, or take equally dire positions of low skill. It sounds harsh, but your career is your responsibility, not someone else's problem. If you're doing something that can be automated, assume it will be.
