having one pilot is miles away from having no pilot and even drones are piloted from a ground based pilot and i can't really see the day anytime soon where train drivers and other similar jobs will be done away with unless we have the consent of the people who need an income to survive otherwise the people will put the kaisbosh on the whole thing.
It has already happened on the underground in China. it is on the cards for the London Underground. There is nothing to stop one "pilot" in a computert room from controlling several drones at one time. These things are science fact not science fiction.
So is going to the Moon Science fact, but just because it can be done it doesn't follow it will become the norm...No workers = No wages and no wages mean no buyers of products or services, now business aint that stupid as to think that by removing to many jobs that it will better it's own cause and nor are Governments going to be so stupid as to encourage a situation where there are fewer people in employment than in unemployment, they rely on Tax payers not Benefit takers to pay for everything (including there Salaries) and to honour the national debt.
This new age of Automation is more techno gimickry than future reality, Sure the Governments want to appear trendy and techno savvy by embracing all things new, but they are always slower in waking up to the risks such technology brings with it but in the long run they will twig that a world where unemployment is the norm simply can't work or they will have a revolutionary backlash from the very people that votes them into their cushy office.
People always were, presently are and always will be what drives the world forwards and not the machines, Yes machines will can make our lives easier but they will never replace us completely.
