Absolutely. There is a challenge here and we must acknowledge it. The challenge is how do we ensure people can sustain themselves? One part should be universal basic income so we can ensure people don't physically starve to death. There is a second part here as well though. People need to feel they are doing something worthwhile, that they are productive. Basic income won't solve that. My hope is as we reduce inefficiencies in the labor force, we will be able to put more towards infrastructure building and repairing as well as (like someone else said above) taking care of the very young, the very old, and those in need.
