I don't see how you kill people's jobs. I can't see what you automate being done manually.
You are thinking about this from the perspective that already knows.
My phrasing "Automate industrial machinery" is not accurate I suppose. "Machinery" suggests that there was already a machine doing the job. The vast majority of people that ask what I do, that phrasing works well enough. Give the machine a brain, I guess. Maybe that is a better way to say it.
Most of the people that ask then associate "automation" with taking jobs. We actually do make machines that automate what people once did manually. Many plants welcome it, "we hated doing that job". Some that did the manual labor now become the operators. Some liked the manual labor and hate operating.
