If you remove the wage, and therefore the laborer, you are left with no profit
Not exactly. Because you’re not removing the labor, you’re just bringing it down to virtually nothing.
There’s still the labor of pressing the button to start the AGI.
But the larger problem capitalism has is one of the wage form - my wages are your income as a capitalist, since I buy things with them. You remove wages, and demand (desire plus ability to pay) collapses in the market. Super depression.
