The big difference now is that the progress is fast enough for people to start to understand that their job may be automated in their life. Smart truck drivers in rich countries know that they have only at most 10 years left. Children from villages need to move to big cities to survive, as they understand the trend that farming jobs will worth less over time. Also more people that I know are getting interested in programming, though they do that for the money, not because they would understand the power of creation with code.

The other big difference is that US hourly wages peaked in the 1970s, and there are enough people experiencing the divergence between expectations of continued improvement and reality since then that its no longer a prediction of harms that might occur in the future, but an explanation of harms that are being experienced in the present.
