I think one is operated by human and the other is self-driving. They were talking about automating the metro for a while

To be clear, they may in the future bring back ATC (automated train control), but the trains will still be operated by a person. ATC is more about the signalling mechanisms, and was actually in operation on metro from when it opened in the 70s until 2009 when the crash happened partly due to a fault in ATC. Drivers on metro won’t be going anywhere for a long time yet.
