Everyone directly benefits from most innovations. Even this one will see the 318 million people directly benefit from drastically lower transportation costs to their goods, where ~2 million will need retraining, or likely transitioning into related jobs.
I used to be a truck driver and before and even during, I worked the dock. The only difference between me and the guys on the dock was I could always pass a pee test, I'd spent 5 minutes studying the CDL test manual, and I spent an hour passing both parts of the CDL test which was about as difficult as 6th grade spelling tests. And cheaper truck transport will increase the demand for dock workers.
