Everybody here knows we're already deep in this process, right? Most of us set up automated systems to control automated systems ad infinitum. So everybody who enjoys setting up automated systems will continue to enjoy that, and to be frustrated by partially automated systems and continue automating them ever upward. Everybody else will go do something else. This is just Star Trek TNG. People like Geordi and Wesley have fun writing pathways through the immensely complicated recursive structure of the ships computer, which is capable of automating absolutely any task, and everybody else is engaged in diplomacy, commerce, watching out for people to shoot, or making wooden tubas. In a post-scarcity society labor becomes recreation. As long as society doesn't completely collapse before then because of climate change or wealth inequality.
