Coders are beginning to be replaced by AI applications. That is those jobs that haven't already been outsourced to India and other cheaper job markets or have TFWs coming over to do them. Not only will a guaranteed minimum income not support our current lifestyles or anything like them but who will fund such income? If globalisation is still all the vogue, businesses will move offshore rather than contribute to them (where's the business case?!) and where is the tax base that governments would need to fund guaranteed minimum incomes? To fund such things, governments need MORE people working and paying taxes, not less. The only way out that I can see for the first world is a crack-down on globalisation and that can only work if first world countries act in unison.
