I too want a world where people are not on a treadmill that forces them into wage slavery. But the first step is recognizing that the primary driver of modern individuals' needing to work is the payment of rent on assets that are becoming ever-less feasible to purchase outright.
This is the direct result of the past few decades of extreme inflationary monetary policy. In a time of such technological process, prices should be steadily dropping at an unprecedented rate. But instead, the Fed actually has an explicit policy of forcing them to rise, with the actual professed goal to keep everybody working full time!!
Since new money is created by loaning against specific assets, the newly created money just ends up bidding up the book-prices of consumer-desired assets, closing the CPI feedback loop when the rent (interest) has finally risen enough to take up consumer surplus.
Basic income is thus just an extension of this ongoing policy that naively adds to this inflationary treadmill - giving everyone in SF $1k/mo will result in housing rent going up by roughly $1k/mo.
The real solution we need is the exact opposite - a return to sane monetary policy where individuals are able to save and able to reasonably purchase assets like houses. The ability to save and build wealth gives people stability (not worrying about being out of work for a few months) and thus economic bargaining power to demand higher real wages and fewer working hours. This is the equilibrium mechanic that will constructively respond to the need for ever-less work, finally letting wider society see the gains from increased productivity.
