Sure, we could probably build spaceships and arcologies, but it's not like we'll have unlimited fuel, steel, glass, stone, or anything else. Even just to transport enough steel to build a small station from one planet to another, we'd still have to use ridiculous amounts of energy.
Even if a computer could make a guess on what a possible alternative fuel source or building material could be, it wouldn't necessarily be any more right than the most informed person in the world's guess.
