property rights, enforceable contracts, and free market economies oriented society toward nonviolent means of resource allocation the central assumption of these technologies is that scarcity is fundamental if ai successfully invalidates that assumption, how will society be reorganized?

it's the other way round. society would have to reorganize for abundance to occur whatever the tech (AI, fusion, etc) the likelihood of abundance in a fragmented and highly unequal world is extremely low

The people who hold property rights, enforcable contracts, etc will need to let go of that ownership in order for abundance to occur. Scarcity is socially constructed and fundamental for wealth to grow in the free market economy. "The other way around" means that there are people in power and in control of resources who would need to fundamentally shift their relation to the resources they control in order for the world to become a place where abundance is possible. Abundance is possible today, in fact. What makes starving communities and massive amounts of food waste possible at the same time?
