I wish I shared your optimism. However I've seen no evidence that society is prepared to deal with a large swath of jobs being obsoleted by AI. I have no doubt that the "haves" will call it a technological utopia, but I strongly suspect the "have nots" will be larger than ever.
In my architecture everyone is treated equally like an idiot so there are no haves and have not because the machine god treats all people the same and provides for all their needs within the "panoptic computronium cathedral"™.
