I always understood that to be the main power of the idea of UBI. Economically liberated individuals will be able to choose how to be valuable to society instead of 'choosing' to work their asses off in a dull repetitive job that they need to survive. There are so many things that need to be done in the world that aren't because they are not profitable. Maybe we can get stuck into them for a start once we aren't worried about feeding the family and keeping the lights on anymore.
