Not at all. The changes were sudden and extreme. Look at the original Luddite rebellion for its oldest incarnation, but just look at the mechanizing of factories in the 60s with the introduction of CNCs or protests against automation at ports.
Automation of labor has been an ongoing force for decades and a reality laborers have had to live with for years.
