His concept of "utopia" is one where only robots work, and humanity looking more like B&L customers in a WALL-E world.

It absolutely is a bad thing. There's a version of "post scarcity" where everyone is provided for and cared for, and there's the one these assholes are aiming for, where most are left to languish. His is unquestionably the latter.
Languish is a strong word, post scarcity heavily implies most of our desires being met, not a minimum to survive.
It should still be the end goal in either case. Hopefully, we can have proper change before it to avoid some kind of techno feudalism.
My point is that what he's aiming for isn't what you're imagining or describing. He doesn't want comfort or care for others, he wants to have as much money and power as he can possible claw in, and others having something means he has less to hoard.
In short, he's lying and it's important to understand that.
It's also not what this image is saying either.
Yes we know what Musk actually wants, but what's being described in the image is quite nice
Hopefully we can have change so we get what he predicts and not what he wants.
