dazzledbeans 5 parallel universes ahead
qyronSo, first you need to learn how to set up the printer, then fetch the bot produced text, review (hopefully), load it to the printer, run a test to determine it every part is working, run the “print”, review it…
I’d risk doing it yourself would be quicker
elboyolocoThe first time maybe
How busy is your life that you can’t be bothered to actually study to learn?
If they know “how to set up the printer, then fetch the bot produced text, review (hopefully), load it to the printer, run a test to determine it every part is working, run the “print”, review it…”
Then I’d say they are more prepared for the future they’re inheriting than their peers that have to study and learn how to rig this bad boy up.
But anyway it’s just a gag so…
They’re not, really. 3D printing simply hasn’t taken off as promised and society is collapsing all around us anyway.
Plus he is making himself wholly dependent on corporate proprietary software to express thoughts for him, meaning now he cannot speak for himself or articulate his own ideas, leaving him vulnerable to whatever tech giants want.
What happens when Chat GPT starts censoring answers, or makng shit up and the teacher catches him? Or he has to use the skills he is supposed to be learning on the fly (which happens all too often, especially critical thinking skills) without access to his workshop? Is he going to carry a 3D printer wherever he goes?
He is really selling himself short by using the few skills he has to get around learning anything else useful. That’s the kind of mindset that is going to cause civilization to collapse, prevent progress, allow fascists to take advantage of the fact that he is uneducated to brainwash him, and endanger himself and those he loves.
pankuleczkaplThe chat GPT interface is literally the simplest part of the whole solution. It requires wiring custom GCODE compiler from vector text and of course converting text to vector graphics. I bet this guy easily could learn anything he wanted to use and is one of the creative guys this society actually runs on in the long term.
And not a single ounce of that is going to help him in any respect other than getting some hits on a video, unless he finds very niche specialty work using 3D printers which in the U.S. simply does not exist.
He still needs the understanding he can only obtain by actually learning material himself to be able to do anything actually useful.
Niche? Are you a lunatic? The 3D printing industry is one of the fastest growing fields in the world. 3D printing is getting cheaper and cheaper compared to eg. CNC machining. The industry is a very important one, because it allows you to create accurate parts much more quickly that to drill a block of metal. And all this not even mentioning that this required mostly general computer science skill, I hope you won’t call the computer science field niche?
Yes, niche. He could make a profit doing homework for others, for a short time until he is caught I suppose. But America simply doesn’t have the industry to really boost someone like him, and no one building any wants people who can’t write on their own with their own hand or think with their own mind.
People like him have no real conceptual understanding of what they do. He can’t do back of the envelope calculations, think quickly, or solve problems. And that’s why Chat GPT will always be bad and immoral.
You think someone writing custom software can’t solve problems?
Also, a 3d printing is just an additive cnc machine, learning how to operate, tweak, tune, write gcode, etc, is an incredibly important skill in manufacturing and r&d, CAD skills are not niche, they are incredibly sought after.
Learning how to use and modify a 3d printer at an early age, as well as learning software development, and practicing connecting disparate systems is one of the best things you could do if you want to become an engineer.
“He can’t do back of the envelope calculations, think quickly, or solve problems.” This is just made up, completely. That is literally just a fantasy created in your head.
Not if all they’re going to do is use it to do homework for them, no. They’re just slaves wiring themselves to corporate machines and so are you for supporting them.
