This first bill allows the state of California to regulate and oversee all 3D prints in the name of public safety.

    Even AI can’t do this. It is an impossibility. AI might be able to make the shape, but it will NEVER be able to interpret the intent of that shape. It will never know if a cylinder is meant for a gun or for a rolling pin. It will never know if I’m making a trigger for a gun or a replacement trigger for my hot glue gun.

      But it CAN force your printer not to print that replacement hot glue gun trigger. After all, there’s nothing in the law that says that this software has to allow non-gun related 3D printing. The simplest way to be in compliance with this law is to simply prevent all print jobs

      If an AI can tell what’s in a picture (which is a series of pixel data), it can certainly reconstruct gcode into an “image.” Ive used it at work for similar tasks.

      Cylinders obviously are too generic, but there are parts that are a lot more specific and could be fingerprinted.
