It's going exactly where you'd expect it to go now that workers are in a much worse negotiating position due to jobs being automated away, efficiency improvements, etc: to the owners of the businesses. This is probably an across-the-board thing, but in areas where increasing automation has pushed down costs heavily that helps to disguise the impact a little on the consumer side. Even there I think workers are getting a much smaller slice of the pie and owners a lot more.
