If humans still exist, those things will still hold value. I can't say for sure humans will survive in the same quantities once all things settle, but let's imagine we are in a future where deep learning has matured and netflix, steam, facebook, etc are all now just "prompt terminals" that output your request.

Then, with infinite variations, there will be infinite duds. People will value the ones that aren't duds so there will be a market for curators. And there will be a niche where people will want to see the exact same output together and talk about it.

Can you imagine facebook ? "Facebook, please give me a friend that <prompt here>"
