     @glynmoody It's called tourism.

     Imagine the following alternative:

     souvenirsdiroma.it offers you a complete set of individual selfies with Rome's historic backgrounds, just for €99,99, just upload a dozen of your selfies, our advanced AIs will do everything else, 15 minutes later you can download your fully genuine souvenirs. And for just €25 per person more (available in selected cities), we deliver you a true Italian dinner to your home.

     How loud would the tourism industry howl?
