If they can do Michaelangelo, they can do McDonalds - let’s keep raising that minimum wage!

Old Money hates fine marble sculpture replication in the same way they hate Trump: it attacks their very shaky standing in the social pecking order, the attention they get, their special access to the best. They cannot compete.

Really, robot sculpting isn't much different than music replication. Before Edison invented recording technology, average musicians could make a reasonable living playing live in their home towns. Now they are relegated to providing music lessons to the bratty children of the rich, for an hourly minimum wage, while a very few lucky musicians of equal talent make millions of dollars every year through the fickle finger of fate, even after their death.

Italy has passed a number of regulations regarding food labeling to preserve their historic food heritage. For instance, Chinese noodles do not have egg, but traditional pasta has egg; so the labels of non-egg pasta cannot imply "italian." The world has agreed on materials like ivory, as another example of prohibitions or limits on usage.

Likewise with their historic traditional arts, I think they should ban the use of marble for "tourist art" and confine it to hand-made fine art and a limited amount and type of marble for building materials. Other countries have marble that can be used for building.

Since all of these are copies, it will be good as long as the prices come way down for them.

Marble sculpture is beautiful but priced way way too high.

The only real downside I see is that the existing works (which were likely bought at auction for millions) will be slightly devalued.
