**Problem definition**

Assuming that humans could remain as decision-makers when it comes to defining what problems we want solved, e.g. defining what type of life we want to enjoy, what we would like the world to look like, what constitutes happiness, etc, humans will need to **specify** (and most importantly give feedback on) those specific goals, objectives and to keep **refining**  and adapting them to evolving preference frontiers. 

One could argue that the above constitutes **work**, and can definitely have both a meaningful and significant impact in the economy.

Note that we call the above "programming" or machine learning (~ automatic programming from data) in today's world.

Nowhere is written that our goals in life are fixed/static. Moreover, *inferring* (computing) our goals and preferences over time with varying time horizons, and as we evolve, may be an [unsolvable problem][1] and require infinite time and most importantly our feedback.
