I have a fridge\freezer with an ice maker. The automatic ice maker

What causes this cube to get smaller in an environment that appears to
stay the same?


Same reason water evaporates in an environment that appears to stay
the same. Solids can evaporate into gas. Dry ice is famous for doing
that.

"Famous" is right! I saw some dry ice on Letterman's show last year.
