It's sad that we aren't all rich enough to have a personal assistant to tend to our sides 24/7? mean, it seems more useful than, say, cruise ships, but they get to exist.

Things don't "get to exist", that implies that there's a person or people who have decided not to use some power of theirs to make all cruise ships disappear.

The GP quote also wasn't about a personal assistant use case, it was about filling a hole in personal connection. Its sad because we are more often today having less human connections and more digital, aka fake, ones.
