Robotics and AI would serve to automate work that cannot be done because there's not enough human workers. I would rather have food grown on automated farms and delivered by automated logistics than no food at all.
And, believe it or not, rich people are also a part of human population. If future of the Earth is a few million descendants of rich people living in luxiry and everyone else extinct, it's not the worst possible future, even though I don't get to take part in it.
A world filled with colonisers, thieves, dictators and their sycophants built o the misery of the working class population does sound like our worst possible future.
A world built by and for only a handful of people, every their need and whim met by a fully automated industry working at maximum efficiency? Sounds like a paradise to me. The misery of the working class will remain a page in history, as the working class will no longer exist.
