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.
Last handmade item I purchased was made in front of me while I waited. A cool friendship bracelet of black, blue, & red. I’m really sad it’s lost in the Caribbean Sea.
