Right, and the next logical follow-up question is did we just define 'providing' wrong. Right now, that definition is commercial GDP value, but even that metric's inventor warned us that it's a bullshit metric [1]. Old people living by themselves sometimes spam call doctors, not for their heart bypass commercial value, but to feel materially better after talking to another human, which has no commercial value. When I was trying to figure out what to do after high school, I was full of energy and curiosity for this world and wanted to do everything from being a historian, to a musician, to astrophysics, which, let's face it, has no commercial value. Now I'm coding. Luckily I like coding, but not everyone's lucky to have their interests align with commercial value. Maybe it's not so bad for humans to be humans again.
