This resolves YES if, at the start of 2050, all humans were to suddenly vanish from the universe, automated factories would continue to produce and distribute items to other factories either forever or until interrupted by a major change in the natural environment (e.g. heat death of the universe, or the sun going red giant, or lumber trees going extinct).
This market will resolve based on my personal judgement and is quite a ways in the future, so consider that there may be high resolution risk.
