I think all jobs we currently know will slowly be automated, but there will be a whole new sector of jobs and places where people can find meaning in virtual worlds.

Probably in 20 years or so, minimum-wage level UBI will be a thing in most European countries. And virtual worlds will be where people will go to try and get rich (not prostitution). Almost anyone will be able to afford a VR headset and live a much more enjoyable live in virtual worlds compared to real life. Graphics will probably be almost up to par with real life.

There will be rich and poor but I think life as a poor person in 2040 or so will still be quite enjoyable.
