There are services that are provided based on implicit assumption that their consumers are human and they are priced accordingly.

You can't go to theater and instruct your computer(a.k.a. camera) to consume & learn or summarize the movie/performance on your behalf. If that's possible and allowed, I'm sure the admission fee will be drastically different.

Google will not let you instruct your computer to consume all the search results for a keyword and filter out good results & summarize them (you can technically still do that but Google will try their best to make sure you don't). If you do, they'll throw you into a hell that is infinite captcha loop. Yes, they are hypocritical to do that but that is a different issue.

A human and a computer are not comparable either in capabilities or their lifetimes. Let's not mix them up.
