My advice is to get an Internet job and keep it until AI automates all jobs (which, given how fast AI progress accelerates, should happen this decade).

Not having to work for a living isn't a bad thing, it's a good thing, but I do understand the concerns about how well the translation between work and non-work will be handled.

Supporting UBI is the best option until post-scarcity starts with the advent of the nanofactory.

The products of automation will all goto the rich. They will gate all benefits of AI from the working class to keep their power.

In the United States, the government will tactically nuke protestors on the grounds they are "communist sympathizers' before they ever consider a UBI.

With all due respect, that is a horrible advice. People must eat. Only the homeless care abouz nothing.

It is better to play it safe and get a job that is not touched for a long time as boomers are retiribg now
