For a program to have a chance at identifying anything, it wouldn't be able to run on the 3D printer. It likely wouldn't be able to run in a slicer program, and CAD programs are already beefy. A program such as this is destined to run in the cloud. (Pro tip: "Cloud" in networking is just a term for "someone else's server".) If the iterative manufacturing of a product are going through third party systems, there's no privacy. Literally everything going through the printer is being surveilled. (This can be better explained using the arguments in the section "analogous Situation" below) | For a program to have a chance at identifying anything, it wouldn't be able to run on the 3D printer.

Because the definition of a firearm is not straightforward, some kind of agentic AI would need to be used to identify geometries for potential hazards. This approach is used in the real world with the intent of enforcing local laws, and with the byproduct of harmful consequences to innocent bystanders. | |||
An elderly woman, Angela Lipps, was arrested for and jailed 6 months. AI had linked her with bank fraud in another state, and she was charged. But Angela Lipps didn't commit this crime. She lost her house in the process. | |||

Pro-block lobbyists have argued that when 3D printers are in use at schools or public maker spaces, that it would be disastrous if someone were able to print a firearm. This demonstrates that there are plenty of institutions that would ''voluntarily'' purchase such systems if they existed. The fact that they have not already done so should be a solid indication that such technology is not market-viable, at least not at this time. | Pro-block lobbyists have argued that when 3D printers are in use at schools or public maker spaces, that it would be disastrous if someone were able to print a firearm.
