Color has been disappearing from the world.

A new research group used machine learning to track color changes in
common materials and items, below is their findings for all color
changes over time, they used 7000+ items from the 1800s to now to
determine color changes in the most common items.

Below are the colors of cars by year, notice how the majority of cars
are grey, white, or black compared to twenty years ago.

These aren't data points, but they are comparisons between the
'modern' homes of the 70s and 80s compared to the modern homes of
today.

Carpets have equally had the same treatment of grey added to them!
The most common color of carpet is now grey or beige.

Even locations that used to scream with color for decades have now
modernized to becoming boring minimalist (and I love minimalism)
personality-less locations.

The world is becoming colorless, why?
