This is a circular argument though, you say people prefer people and therefore we will have a lot of people around.
Today leaders and rich people requires humans to wage war and to produce goods, those are the main thing creating stability today. When those are removed we are likely to see a sharp decline in number of humans around. Companies cutting out humans and just using machines as leaders and decision makers outcompete humans in peace time, and robot lead armies outcompete humans in war times, and soon human companies or countries no longer exists.
