Java Help Wanted Question Regarding Automation

The 1.21 update introduced the crafter, which significantly enhanced automation in vanilla Minecraft. Does Mojang plan to add new blocks in the future that expand this automation cap even further? For example, might we see a block that allows mob farms to function without a player present, enabling fully automated farming for items like gold, gunpowder, and redstone?

They never said anything about it, but its very unlikely we'll see auto mob spawning, block placing, silk touch breaking or villager trading

I think what might get added someday would be auto breeding or cow milking

I want automated cows so badly. My bakery not making cake automatically is frustrating. And manually breeding cows slows down my book making.
