I use to get sales everyday, but its been 10 days or so, my account is getting no sales, very restricted views, i just want to know if its just me or someone else is facing the same problem too ?
Totally feeling everyone else on this. Even my views over the past much have completely and utterly tanked. Might as well be uploading for myself because this place has turned into a real sh*t show. I have three high profile products setting on my store right now in single digit views and have been setting there for weeks. Yet someone posts some AI bs and it goes through the roof.
I was told that when using the selected options (“Maximize your earnings”) in the Discounts tab under Sales, purchases are counted DIFFERENTLY. From what I understand, they are actually NOT being counted, so I’ve disabled these “sales enhancement” options and am now waiting for a response from support about when I will receive payments for my sold models.
I can fully agree with mykola1985. Add to the fact that the resulting reduction in sales also causes many 3D modelers to venture into AI (me included), and you have a complete hollowing out of the entire business. There is no money to be made from AI, unless you are able to generate models yourself. I honestly don't know what I'll be doing in a year from now...
It gives sense what mykola1985 says. I would only say that there some kind of diversificagion - some kodels categories are affected more and other categories less (are safer).
Typically models like Coca-coca cans whose usage (as 3D models) can be fully replaced by other AI tools/generators.
On the other site highly-detailed cars models are on the opposite site are selling relatively well also nowadays. Look at artists like Fischerman3D, Squir ehich are getting still the similar amount of customers rewievs like in previous years.
My final thought. Of course A.I does not affect 3d markets directly. Mostly due to its low quality models. But It does affect It INDIRECTLY, as the final result, renders, videos. Because 3d models are finalized to something like images, videos,3d printing or use in gaming. 3d model itself Is only a "passage" to a final product .Thats my point of view.
They Simply no longer use 3d software nor buy 3d models to reach their objectives in CG. For example: a poster for a congress with transparent human body that shows various organs inside, can be now generated with Ai easily. Even in various directions with the same style, its something you would normally do with a 3d model and rendering a couple of years ago. Now its easier and faster. Almost the same Is for videos. I can make you thousands of examples of this situation. Even skeptics of AI now use ai. I would love to be wrong but the reality Is what It Is. Having said that, It still doesnt mean that every single person on earth Will use A.I. but at least It explains the situation. In gaming and 3d printing, models are still vastly used
