Certain physical goods will always be scarce and there is a limit to energy utilization. I agree that subsistence work for survival is on the way out but I'm unconvinced humans will stop competing for status and resources because of abundance.
The scarcity of energy is even more difficult to defend. There can not possibly be any such thing, it is a truly ridiculous perception.
The ONLY remaining value, then, is in individualism. In bringing forth a unique perspective.
Competing for status is indeed a natural human tendency, that isn't going anywhere any time soon.. But it can no longer equate to competing for resources.

Energy consumption can not increase without bound. Every human on the planet can not have a 10GW datacenter to simulate their own perfect Matrix where they are King of all creation. The thermodynamics of waste heat certainly puts limits on potential energy utilization for 15 billion humans.
Your inability to conceive of limitations that are certainly present, is not an indication that those limitations do not exist.
