EXACTLY. From what I've seen, I don't even think self driving cars are remotely viable for another 10~15 years (honestly we'd probably need general purpose AI first, and if that's even remotely possible, there's no way you're going to get a thinking sentient machine to put in the effort to do something so mundane as driving your damn car).
There are still so many things machines cannot do. They can't pick products of different sizes in an Amazon warehouse. They can't make carbon fibre (most of that stuff is still shaped by hand) .. hell even a lot of space rocket shells are still bent into shape by hand.
Ideally we'd want to see the world move away from goods and more human beings living more sustainably producing content and art for one another. But who am I kidding, we're totally going to run out of resources and/or cover our planet in plastic slurry of sludge and pollution long before then.
