We have the most automation and AI we have ever had right now, and roughly the lowest unemployment.

It is a bit unstable... we have all these things because we keep people working and it makes the rich insanely rich. If too many people get unemployed then that threatens the rich with violence.

But when we get to the point that bots both fight for the rich and make the rich peoples stuff then there is no real reason for the current system to remain.
