Even retraining is not quick enough.

There this one company not too far from me. Most of their workface they get are from temp agencies.

They are going through accounts and business so fast I’ve never seen someone spend more than a two months working on single account. They train people for current phone job and that account. Those that pass get in and not even two months later people get moved to a new training class. With how much training people costs and the amount of down time I still can’t work out how they make any profit. It’s just pure insanity.

don't need four million more software developers

Even if there was there are so many people who would just not be very effective or affective at it that it would be better without them even entering that field.

While I don’t like the thought of basic income system at first. I’m more than willing to admit if you removed people who frankly just don’t care and never will be engaged employee in the workplace with automation. That would be removing a lot of wasted resource and time. Now will a basic income ever be able to support that many people to pay high enough for them to at least afford the cost of living in there areas? I have a feeling there almost need to be some mass movement of population out of very high costing areas into lower ones.
