The machine may be fine for checking in quick internal flights but I would suggest international flights should still be manual. However, I'm sure you know best as Americans always do as we can see around the world.

If you traveling to the states, canada etc from the UK there is no need to even see anyone from BA if not checking in baggage till you get on your first aircraft. You can have both boarding cards with you processed either online or by a self service machine. The Machines ask the security questions, in europe they do not ask you these at checkin they just have them displayed around the checkin desk.
It does not matter if people like them or not they are here to stay and they will soon become the future. It costs far less for a self service machine situated in a termainal than a chechin desk, computer system and someone to man the desk.
