>Robots haven't materialized yet, neither any political will to shrink the safety net.

Human-like general-purpose robots - yes. Except, by definition, a robot, essentially a programmable mechanism, not something human-like.

Stuff like warehouses is getting increasingly automated, planes basically can fly and land themselves without human in the loop, autonomous cars are not here, but are coming in the next decade probably.

Personally, I haven't bought a cup of coffe a human made in at least a decade. That's some poor barista's salary not getting paid.

Not that I would know the difference between a 5/10 coffe from a machine and a theoretically 10/10 coffe a professional would make. And a machine makes one for a whole lot cheaper.
