But in the vastness of the 3D model repositories we turn to every day, is it a problem? I've seen social media posts drawing attention to perceived waves of "AI slop" on model platforms, griping about the models and generated imagery of models, but haven't really given it much thought myself. What do you think?

at least it is for YouTuber Mike Lake. Mike's spent three months making a video about "upgrading" his Porsche Boxter into a super-high-end GT3 RS using only PETG and his seemingly limitless patience. 681 hours of 3D printing went into the current status of his Boxter GT3 RS, with over 100 hours of print failures encountered too. As a Porsche lover with no hope of owning a Porsche, this brings a tear to my eye. Keep at it, Mike, keep at it. P.S: Is that an Integra Type R or a Silvia S15 in the background of the vid?

your unwanted/failed 3D prints might end up in your mouth. As food. According to reports from interestingengineering.com, via the efforts of a specialized, gooey type of fungus, Biophelion discovered plastic can be broken down into the edible polymer pullulan. I guess that means we'll be keeping our Bambu purges in the future. Oh, and we've plenty of benchys laying around. Anyone peckish?
What happens when you cram a 120 W water-cooled diode laser, a 4 W infrared laser, and a 200 W CNC router into a single unit? An Acmer X1, it seems.
