Fascinating! I haven't been in the industry as long as you, but I can empathize with the sense of obsoletion. I was working on a design tool for over 10 years, with a goal of building a coding language that was understandable by designers. Once I tried ChatGPT for the first time back in 2021, I knew immediately that it was game over. All my work had gone down the drain.
For a while people were talking about the necessity of UBI in response to the potential elimination of jobs. I tend to take your view (I think it's your view) that it's more worthwhile to automate our basic necessities. Food, water, shelter - use technology to drive those costs down to zero or near zero so that an economically risky solution like UBI doesn't even need to be proposed.
