3D assets marketplace CGTrader is being flooded by AI slop, but nobody is buying it, suggesting AI isn't "repricing the market."

    Infinite supply with zero demand, of course is has no value.

    All it does is flood the market with garbage, ruining the value for real creators.

        Which in turn is an algorithm-incentivized DDOS attack on art.

      What is that economic rule/theory that a commodity’s utility is never a factor because consumers will consume a thing just for existing no matter what?

        Tell ya what. Go to your local dog park. Offer to clean up all the poop in little baggies, as long as you get to keep the poop.

        Then come home with hundreds of baggies of dog poop, and set up a little lemonaid stand. Except instead of lemonaid, you can sell dog poop. $0.25 per baggie.

        Report back how many you sold just because it exists for sale.

        sounds sus. the utility of a commodity seems directly linked to the inelasticity of demand for it.
