Same here, it's extremely hard to find motivation when I know every idea I have has been done better by someone who isn't me, or recently by a computer. In either case I can't meaningfully compete and if it's been done better, why do it at all?
This applies to art, but even more broadly than that. I get no satisfaction in creating something when I can see people who have done it far better than me via a quick search.
