There already aren't enough jobs.

The first wave of industrial automation led to the modern welfare state, unemployment benefits, medicare, social security, etc. Hopefully if we're indeed in a new wave of intellectual automation, it leads to universal basic income. I want to do work that I want to do, for the sake of myself, my life, friends and family, and personal fulfillment... not out of coercion.

idk man, there are lots of jobs which could be done. The local authority could take household waste more frequently. More litter picking and street sweeping. Smaller class sizes so more teachers per student. Better road maintainance.
There are tonnes of jobs which aren't getting done but would benefit us all.
