But ultimately, customers must have an income, or they can't buy anything. I don't know if AI is a tipping point but if there aren't enough buyers, the economy falls apart.

Maybe everything becomes cheap/free but I don't think that is the likely outcome.

It is far, far too soon to imagine that AI will do everything. I could make myself an instant coffee for about $0.02 in the comfort of my own home, but instead I spend $6 to have a political illiterate with a massive beard make it for me.
