I wrote an April Fool's article back in like 1999 (I might still be able to find it on dejanews) describing a make-believe ARRL contest which was totally automated; contesters could come home from work and peruse their logs to see what stations their computers had 'worked' that day. When parody becomes reality, it's no longer funny. I'm chagrined that that fictitious day appears to have finally arrived.
I suspect you haven't used any of the WSJT modes. Operator skill and experience significantly increases the likelihood of completing QSOs, especially QSOs with stations that you want to work. Indeed, auto sequencing often gets in the way of that, responding to calls from locals when DX (or stations in rare grids) are calling you.
