I dunno about that - it's at least not universally true. I share the view that a lot of manual labor is not so easily automated, but if the job you do is able to be done by an expert system - it will be. (That's not to say UBI is needed or not, at least not for that reason, I'm woefully unqualified to make that assessment.)
