Taskmaster seems to take it from the position of the extremely wealthy, not from the average person. The wealthy will be on that island, living it up, never having to see the suffering of others. I guess, that is one approach to the future.

Once a UBI really takes hold, we become reliant on handouts completely. Where does that lead? Abundance? Or slavery?

It depends on how it is handled. If it is treated like a basic right, then I can't see how it can be construed as slavery. It can be like free public school or healthcare in other countries. And since it is given to all regardless if they are working or not, wouldn't it be the opposite of slavery where people are forced to work for nothing?
