I just read it as both groups have a similar mindset. Each thinks they can get short term gains, so they will. I disagree with the assertion that either is fundamentally bad though. Cars are the most lethal thing in the western world (unless you count natural causes like cancer or heart failure), even if the first generation of self driving cars kills a hug number of people it will be a platform for building safer cars in the future. Autonomous weapons there is room for debate there, even I think it reduce overall human suffering and death.
