Nah, went it breaks down then its back to the manual method of dragging everything out of the case putting it on the grey trays then watch as someone decides to pick up your stuff whilst you're being held back because they've decided to stop and do a detector test on you.
Being less cynical, you'll still see the same amount of security personnel involved as the airports will find it cheaper to employ people than spend money on a machine. On the other hand, the quicker they get you through security, it means even more opportunities to try and get you to buy from the overpriced shops on the other side!

Or they'll go the other way and link it up it to Google's Deepmind AI and have you stand on a trapdoor, if it sees anything it doesn't like the trapdoor will open and you'll plunge down some sort of tube and into a chair where you'll be questioned by a person or robot.
