There will always be a need to fix new technology, update it, repackage it, sell it, and then all the new technology it generates will need the same.
The problem with an unearned basic income is that all prices will rise because people spend easy money in stupid ways, on chips and soft drinks, etc. When people aren’t frugal vendors increase prices as high as people will tolerate, and people tolerate a lot when they are spending other people’s money.

Someone has to put value in the money by working for it.

Jobs AI won’t be doing: bathing the elderly in nursing homes, tending to the handicapped, cleaning up after dogs and cats....room as are neat but not that good.

There will be new kinds of work but what they will be isn’t known yet.

The key to a prosperous life is to skate to where the puck will be. Think about the education you will need. Constantly retool yourself and keep up to date. Don’t be satisfied flipping burgers. It’s a dog-eat-dog world out there — always has been and always will be.
