Lets say in 10 years, 3D printing technology become so advanced, almost anything can be perfectly replicated. So I find some leaked car 3d file, I download it, I print the car. What current laws would I be violating? Civil or criminal? And what future laws can you anticipate?
Right now we already have aluminum printers and arrays that will turn a stone (wood, ice, etc) block into a detailed sculpture.
The cool thing is that prototypes can be printed and then turned into dyes to be filled with steel and cast, and NGOs are using this tech to arm African villages against warlords.
About the same time we make fusion power viable, well be able to construct civil projects in a simulation, test it against the elements with an advanced physics engine and then send an array of constructor robots to build it from the ground up.
Just in time for humanity to get wiped back to the stone age from perpetual severe weather.
You mean like what the “whistleblower” was claiming about the aliens in da ocean launching their built to spec ufos from some sort of base?
Spooky haha
