The dangers of 3D printers are visible.


Image (DailyMail/Teenager, 18, is charged after 'home-made 3D printed semi-automatic rifle is found inside an Australian home': 'It's deeply concerning')


The internet of things shows its danger when an Australian teenager printed a fully working semi-automatic assault rifle by using a 3D printer that is bought from the shop. That assault rifle is made of plastic. That thing makes it extremely dangerous because those guns can pass the regular security check of airports. 

The 3D printer can make it possible to turn any CAD image into physical merchandise. This thing is the new type of CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided  Manufacturing) robot. The 3D printer systems are more flexible than regular robots. 

In a 3D printer system, the system turns plastic or metal wires into any merchandise. And that means there are no non-necessary parts onboard. This makes 3D printers suitable for supporting spaceflight. In that case, there are no spare parts that are not needed on board. 

Things like plastic and carbon fiber can make it possible to make stealth arms. Those weapons cannot detect by using regular metal detectors. In the case of plastic, the quality of those guns is poor. But the working gun is always deadly. 

Carbon fiber can be tougher than steel. And carbon fibers are the things that can use to make a gun that has high quality and what is invisible to metal detectors. 

In the case of crimes, the working gun is enough for criminal actions. And the criminals might destroy their guns after use anyway. The 3D printers can handle carbon fiber or make metal parts that make it possible to create more high-quality weapons. The thing that makes metal-printed weapons poor is the gas bubbles in the structure. 

And if the printer operates in a vacuum. That thing solves the problem of quality. So these kinds of things are making the 3D printer technology dangerous. The next-generation weapon dealers can simply use 3D printers to make the firearms for their customers. And people like the South-American narcotics mafia might be the potential customers for that kind of stuff. 

The 3D printer technology is a bad thing in the wrong hands. There are suspicions that those systems are used also for making the illegal pirate spare parts for machines. Also, pirate scissors and other kinds of things are possible to create by using 3D printers.

The LK-99 could be a fundamental advance even if it cannot reach superconductivity in 400K.

The next step in superconducting research is that LK-99 was not superconducting at room temperature. Or was it? The thing is that there is needed more research about that material. And even if it couldn't reach superconductivity in 400K that doesn't mean that material is not fundamental. And if LK-99 can maintain its superconductivity in 400K that means a fundamental breakthrough in superconducting technology.  The LK-99 can be hype or it can be the real thing. The thing is, anyway, that high-voltage cables and our electric networks are not turning superconducting before next summer. But if we can change the electric network to superconducting by using some reasonable material. That thing can be the next step in the environment. Superconductors decrease the need to produce electricity. But today cooling systems that need lots of energy are the thing that turn superconductors that need low temperatures non-practical for everyday use.  When the project begins there is lots of ent

Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.

 Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.  Black holes and gravitational waves: is black hole's singularity at so high energy level that energy travels in one direction in the form of a gravitational wave.  We normally say that black holes do not send radiation. And we are wrong. Black holes send gravitational waves. Gravitational waves are wave movement or radiation. And that means the black holes are bright gravitational objects.  If we can use water to illustrate the gravitational interaction we can say that gravitational waves push the surface tension out from the gravitational center. Then the other quantum fields push particles or objects into a black hole. The gravitational waves push energy out from the objects. And then the energy or quantum fields behind that object push them into the gravitational center.  The elementary particles are quantum fields or whisk-looking structures. If the gravitational wave is

The CEO of Open AI, Sam Altman said that AI development requires a similar organization as IAEA.

We know that there are many risks in AI development. And there must be something that puts people realize that these kinds of things are not jokes. The problem is how to take control of the AI development. If we think about international contracts regarding AI development. We must realize that there is a possibility that the contract that should limit AI development turns into another version of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. That treaty didn't ever deny the escalation of nuclear weapons. And there is a big possibility that the AI-limitation contracts follow the route of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.  The biggest problem with AI development is the new platforms that can run every complicated and effective code. That means the quantum computer-based neural networks can turn themselves more intelligent than humans. The AI has the ultimate ability to learn new things. And if it runs on the quantum-hybrid system that switches its state between binary and quantum states,
