Creating a regulatory environment in which a large fraction of the population end up on wages that don’t sustain a reasonable standard of living is a problem for everyone, not just those experiencing low wages. from a utilitarian perspective we could easily be better off as a society taxing tech bros enough to pay them UBI rather than doing food deliveries on serf wages.

Again, unemployment is low and no one is forcing anyone to take those jobs. If someone is that is a problem, yes.

UBI is never going to happen
