Forget telling me about how UBI is a great idea or a terrible idea, and somebody tell me how there are enough jobs for people aged 17-65 in 30 years.

I would counter that there should be more markets products and services to replace obsolete markets products and services every day. That's the biggest part of incentivization, it rewards innovation and change.
While there are more people every day, Birth rates are dropping in first world countries, while the job market continues to look for younger people that are more tech oriented.
Where the biggest changes comes in is that there will be no such thing as long term career paths. People are going to have to continually change their job orientation as the job market shifts faster and faster.
