The same thing that happened to horsewhip manufacturers when automobiles were developed. Take whatever moral insight from this you want, but the key insight here is that it would be ridiculous to hold back technology for fear of people losing their livelihoods that the old technology gave them. From there you can go in any number of directions. Some say that social security policies are the answer, some disagree. Take what side you will in that debate, but do debate it, as it is a problem that needs to be solved. But once again, to try to hold back technological progress is inconceivable, impossible, and inadvisable.
