I'm a robotics engineer trained back in the 80s, but still working with pretty cutting edge stuff today. It's true that automation poorly thought out can be anti-human, but to assume that it's inherently racist is just raw woke racism at its purest.
Good automation solutions reduce or eliminate mindless, menial drudge work and free up people to things that people are better at than machines - dream, think, and make it happen. And IMO, it will still be a long time before the machines are better than people at those sorts of jobs.
Even our best AIs don't really understand, they just mimic their training set.

That's true, but the same can be said about a large percentage of office workers.
