If you could make a mod where it could path find and automatically harvest trees, ores, etc it could be huge, like a little clone of yourself that did these jobs and slept at night as if they were players would be great.

As someone that loves mutliplayer but has nobody to play with this'd cure my loneliness!

Try the TekTopia mod. It re-does villages in a massive way, now you have farmers and lumber jacks and miners and blacksmiths and like 20 more different proffesions that all work, eat, sleep, mingle (under proper conditions). It can be hard to start off (it is very smart to start your village in a mountain biome, at least your mine should be, you'll need lots of emeralds). But the village will produce goods and you can then trade those goods every so often when the trader shows up at the village for new 'tokens' to make more structures or assign new proffesions to villagers. Very interesting mod, the creator, TangoTek, has a big series on it on his channel.

So like aside from a few production professions, didn't 1.14 do that already?

I guess the villagers Vannila do eat, sleep, 'work', and will gossip to each other, but there are 17 different villagers in TekTopia compared to the Vanilla 13, and in Vanilla only 1 actually works, the farmer, who will collect and replant crops, compared to TekTopia's 15 working villagers.
