> Money needs to keep flowing. If all that remains of the economy consists of a few datacenters talking to each other, how can the ruling class profit off that?

Plenty of profit was made off feudalism, and technofeudalism has all the tools of modern technology at its disposal. If things go in that direction, they will have an unlimited supply of serfs desperate for whatever human work/livelihood is left.

Unlimited supply yes, but highly limited usage for them. So even if a few will work for free, the rest will be starving, and angry.
