Every bigger change is not good for someone. These people could've started riding with Uber, learned programming, drive with cargo, fly planes (did you know it's easier than driving cars?) and so on. There is no objective reason for suicide, these people still have it better than people during the industrial revolution.
Society should learn how to help people not feel endangered by technology and prevent them feeling like they should kill themselves. Technology helps us and while you might not have job for 10 years, automation might change the world so much that almost no one will have a job in 10 years.
