How about public transport? It makes a substantial difference that I can pull up the route suggestion and station timetable from my pocket always-on always-connected supercomputer to know to the minute when I need to start tieing my shoes to get where I'm going. You're basically arguing that adding telepathic conscioussness to a service provides less than zero value.
It's not that these services don't provide value, it's that they don't make money. These are two quite different things.
