Yes, you can, because there's an infinity of dimensions and each person only has to be above average on one of them.

Whether you're an above-average Scrabble player is irrelevant to a discussion about work and wages. Unless there's something of economic value that you can do better and more cheaply than a robot, there is no reason for anyone to pay you.
