Mh tough but really good question.
I think we need to start taxing work done by robots. For every dollar you earn the state takes an income tax. This is not really true for robots, because it's hard to tell how much they "earn".
With the money from this tax, you could provide some kind of universal basic income (or something alike).

Taking the feat of surviving away by introducing something like UBI you could unlock a whole new generation of creativity and innovation.
