Is scarcity. People simply want more than society can provide. If this cannot be fixed our societies will collapse. The only way to solve this problem is by increasing the available energy and intelligence. Without powerful AI and better energy (fusion, space solar beaming, thorium etc...) society will collapse into a real dystopia as people's demands outpace the supply and inevitable conflict results.
If everything goes right life will be very easy. Imagine 10 usd meals, 100 usd international flights, free healthcare with advanced preventative measures, free university, 200 usd rent for a comfortable single apartment, and even free AI matchmaking services that find you a marriage partner with 90% satisfaction and lifetime commitment rates. Instead of working a drudge wage-slave job, you will likely work an interesting job that involves you mastering a wide range of skills as automation will take care of all of the details.
If everything goes wrong we will go back to the quality of life of 1940 except even more depressing and dystopian.
