Very cool vision of the future. I'm trying to imagine more consequences of the price of human labor going negative.

After we free up the surplus material making the humans, there will be far less need for many robot-provided services.

Farming won't be as big of a deal anymore. Many of our modern industries will shrink dramatically. We won't need food, clothing, entertainment, or medical services.

We can expect to keep a contingent of engineers around to service and design the robots until they hit the self-repairing, self-designing level of the singularity recursion.

It seems like a more-or-less plausible jumping off point into a runaway-AI future.
