“The shift from 2D photos to 3D models in e-commerce and various industries is rapidly gaining momentum and becoming the standard for commerce.”

The effects of AI advance basically everything. If you don’t use it, for example in this case to sell something on the web, and you use a 2D pic instead of a 3D image, other people will sell more than you.

The ramifications of AI influence, of 3D tech in this case, is everywhere.
He goes on to say:

“This kind of transformation has occurred throughout history, with some companies reaping significant rewards while others face challenges. Just as digital pictures replaced Kodak film in the 1990s, today, in the 2020s, 3D models are replacing digital pictures in commerce. Today about 12-Trillion digital pictures exist globally.”
