Once robots are doing all the labor, and you have open source plans and code, the cost is only that of raw materials and energy.

  > Once robots are doing all the labor, and you have open source plans and code, the cost is only that of raw materials and energy. You still have to pay the people who write those open-source plans and code, plus the ones who build these robots (or the one who build the robots that build the robots), and the ones who sell it. Also, maintainance and updates costs.

    Not once robots are doing all the labor. You just ask your robot to do it, or maybe your friends' robot if you don't have your first robot yet.

      With the current state of AI, the situation you’re describing won’t exist before a century, if it ever exists. You can’t call such thing an "easy" solution.
