Automation taking the jobs away?

People claim that advanced automation and implementing the AI technology in industries are taking the jobs away from labors and workers. It is decreasing the need for the workforce as a lesser number of people are required for industrial work.

But many disagree to this point, they say this is a progression of both work and business in a neutral way. If the number of businesses starts using advanced machinery and robotic systems, this will create a higher demand for such systems. It means someone will have to be manufacturing and maintaining them as well. Thus instead of elimination or taking away jobs, it is actually creating a booming industry.
