Don't worry, there are a lot of much simpler jobs, like drivers or cashiers that will surrender to AI before coder's job does. So UBI will be implemented long before that happens.

I wouldn't be so sure. Programmers (and drivers and cashiers) can "survive" in poverty like millions others already do. This transformation is coming in waves that keep the proverbial frog in the pan.
