A machine might be able to make an objectively better thing, but that’s not what people are paying extra for. It’s the story about a real person applying their skills and effort to make it. Demand for that will likely never cease to exist. I bet it’ll just increase.

    A friend sent me jewelry she found beautiful and almost every time I found the AliExpress listing. I don’t know if she got tired of it or if she finally understood that those things were just dropshipping.
