"universal high income" is not when everyone has high income, it's when everyone who doesn't have a high income is excluded from the universe. There will be few high income people, robots those people own, and the rest of us will be undesirables/illegals/felons/noncitizens of Ms-Apple-Meta-Tesla-Google-topia, who for arbitrary reasons XYZ (they didn't accept the EULA!) don't deserve universal high income (i.e. most people here will fall into that category).

What you're describing could well be how it ends up, but that isn't the future described by universal high income.

Yours is more likely in my opinion though, mainly because universal high income is completely infeasible and shaky even at the level of definition.
