I always like to use this when people cry automation will kill all jobs.
How many times did my parents tell me to quit playing video games because it doesn't provide any real life skills or I'm just wasting time as I'll never get paid to play video games.
Look at how many people are making decent side income as well as thousands and millions of dollars streaming video games and even playing them professionally. Until smart phones became a household electronic who would have thought that Uber would be a thing.
I'm waiting for the day when I can sell my car and just sign up on an app to let them know when I need a self driving car to pick me up and where to drop me off for work. That should be a significant savings not having to own a vehicle anymore paying for gas, maintenance, and insurance.
Why limit imagination and creativity with something as short sighted as UBI. Yes we may need it, but let's just wait and see what new jobs are created that weren't ever possible before.
