Well, there's one thing that humans are much better than robots for the forseeable future: Energy efficiency. Try building a robot that contains a general purpose AI and the motoric functions and sense as humans that runs on the energy of three meals.

Now of course humans want and need more than just 3 meals but still pretty good.

But if most of your work consist of interfacing with computers, you might be in trouble.

Also, since humans aren’t slaves, they do their own maintenance. And they don’t do exactly what you ask, which is good (when they do it’s called “working to rule” and is a kind of strike).

It’s very rare for automation to cause unemployment to the point it possibly never happened.
