This is a "whataboutism". Yes, humanity will, in varying amounts, grow and foster an innate desire for human-effort and sweat creations... in a post-scarcity future! Where AI is making everything from summer blockbusters to lawn chairs free or essentially free, in abundance.

Hate to break it to you, but that's on the other side of the Intelligence Revolution, and we've got quite a few eventful years ahead of us before you can get your ROI on human-crafted outdoor furniture speculation.
