A 3D marketplace of the people with ethical AI for 3D
We believe in a marketplace that rewards everyone that participates in it and a generative AI platform that actually compensates creators for their training data. Ethical AI ftw!
Backpack: a revolutionary new take on marketplaces and generative AI for 3D models and digital assets
Backpack is a revolutionary marketplace that compensates artists for their original work and any AI-generated derivatives. In a world where AI-generated content is rapidly increasing, Backpack ensures fair compensation for artists whose work is used in AI training. This ethical AI marketplace offers stock 3D models and other assets, sharing revenue with artists even if their assets don’t sell. Backpack is built by artists, for artists, promoting a synergistic coexistence between humans and AI.

A new financial structure for a world of generative AI that fairly compensates artists
The Singaporean government envisions that AI plays such an important role in society that they subsidize up to 90% of the costs for 40+ year olds to go back to school and learn and train with AI. Countries like Japan and Korea are embracing AI companions for elderly care. It is no question that AI has formed and will continue to form part of our everyday lives. So… how can we work with AI to reach a level of synergy that allows us to live prosperously, without fear of replacement, without fear of complete displacement, without fear that we won’t be able to make a living from the skills we’ve developed over our lifetime?
What is fair-use in the age of AI? An answer to the commodification of art.
While artists are not going ‘extinct’ their work will lose value. We have seen this before with education (e.g., Udemy, Coursera, etc), music (eg.g., Spotify, iTunes), and now generative AI. The commodification of art has its costs and it affects the artists the most. Backpack solves this issues because its transparent from the beginning.
Why is Backpack a 3D marketplace when there are so many?
All of the 3D model marketplaces function to serve the marketplace hosts and rarely the artists. Sketchfab was a unique outlier and while it's replacement, Fab, is a better option than most, it still doesn't make the cut. This is why:
This is the solution to copyright infringement lawsuits with generative AI
The rise of generative AI has sparked crucial debates about ownership and fair compensation for artists whose work is used without permission. Backpack offers an ethical marketplace for 3D and AI-generated models, ensuring artists are fairly compensated for their contributions. Unlike other platforms, Backpack shares profits with artists, promoting transparency and fairness in the AI industry.
