Yes, AI will replace many existing jobs, but at the same time there will be a huge demand for people to program the AI and design the objects that will be running AI. You have to be a lifelong learner and embrace change.

Even so, you don't need one AI programmer for every robot. A few programmers can write software for millions of robots.
Eventually the AI will be able to program itself. It's unrealistic to expect everyone to become an auto mechanic and it's unrealistic to expect everyone to become an AI programmer.
There's a good reason why governments are considering a basic income, because they know there will be lots of people without anything to do.
