In my opinion work which is only executed for survival should be a thing of the past in the future. I expect our phase, in retroperspective, to be similar to the industrial revolution in some aspects. People have also lost a lot of jobs in that phase - still, (on average) quality of life has only increased since then.

Yes this is actually a huge problem. But the problem is not that those people aren't working anymore, but the problem is that they didn't get enough money to buy those robots on their own, which results in an increasing gap of wealth.
