Who are we expecting to provide us with that plentiness of time and resources so we get to smoke a bong while they run the world, exactly?

The basic plan (figure out the details yourself):

1) We make a list of things all humans without work need daily, to survive.

2) We calculate how many work hours are needed to make these things.

3) We divide these hours by the number of humans who have no work (and therefore can not buy these things).

4) Every one of those humans works that number of hours to get these things.

5) Over time, we improve the workflow, getting the amount of work hours closer towards zero, but people still get the same things.

6) Above that, free markets and luxury, as people desire, with the usual rules keeping the playing field clean.

The difference to the system we have now is that now the system wants (or needs, due to compound interest) people to work AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. My plan wants people to work AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE BUT AS MUCH AS NECESSARY.

... Nope? You're the one telling us that's the future awaiting us thanks to intelligent computers. Figuring out how we're supposed to be going from an increasingly concentrated wealth and power capitalist society to post-scarcity socialism isn't on me. Short of total economic collapse and humanity suddenly doing a 180⁰ and being able to get along on a global scale, why would the billionaires and authoritarian surveillance states currently holding the power willingly decide to let it go for everyone's benefit?
