I think Kaku is a sensationalist and often uses his bloated public image as a physics genius to pretend to know much more about certain fields than he (probably) does. That said, the cessation of the effects of Moore's law would of course have economic consequences, but the economy is adaptive. Further, consumers have become much more interested in technological aspects other than computing power, such as form factors and UX/UI advancements. I don't think it's necessary that if Moore's law became unproductive the tech industry would fail to make advancements that they might promote along the same fast paced life cycles of their current products.
