I do agree with this in some sense. I personally don't think we'll make it to the AI utopia era, but assuming we do, I agree there will be relative resource abundance.

The problem is we're already in an era of relative resource abundance and hunger is still problem, and the super wealthy who have almost unfathomable levels of resource abundance are still doing everything they can to pay as little tax as possible. And this isn't just an issue with the super-rich I myself am no better, and if you're honest, nor are yo. I am relatively very well off, but do relatively very little to help kids starving to death around the world. Somehow I rather take my family on holiday.

But okay, let's ignore this too. Let's just assume we'll be less selfish in the future or something.

Well now, we have another issue – AI has a cure for aging and populations are now exploding. Every beach and tourist attraction has a decade long waiting list. Huge amounts of green land are being built on to accommodate all the unemployed humans who have nothing better to do than have kids. People start to see that the human race resembles something more like a parasite, endlessly spreading and consuming while contributing nothing.

So now what? I'd argue the incentives to provide infinite resources to the economically useless human race doesn't make sense for the AIs or humans in charge. Absence of poverty and disease you simply have to do something to keep the numbers of human parasites under control and/or limit their consumption.
