I mean i can make a plastic bridge too, doesn't mean it will last.
You can't just "print" a steel bridge and expect it to not snap the second day it open to public, it ain't sci-fi.
Well I mean what did you just read? He already said those are the facts bro.
True true, they never claim about the material nor how long it will last.
Standard AI bridge is 50 years. Not too bad.
I'm going to have to ask you to build a bridge and get over it
You probably could make a 3rd printer capable of printing the steel components for a bridge. If you pour enough money and time down the drain, there's no reason why you couldn't have some robots handling the scaffolding and "3D printing" the concrete too. It would be severalÂą orders of magnitude slower and more expensive than using the normal processes, but hey why build 10000 bridges when you can build just one that tech bros can masturbate to.
Âą this "several" is breaking the world record of heavy lifting
I really doubt that 3D printed steel will be able to handle to stress of a bridge support. Maybe it can be used for uniquely shaped joining panels, but recombined powdered steel is nowhere near as strong ir durable as cold rolled or forged steel beams.
There's a 3D printed bridge in Amsterdam: https://www.dezeen.com/2021/07/19/mx3d-3d-printed-bridge-stainless-steel-amsterdam/
A 12m stainless steel pedestrian bridge that took 6 years to make and was subsequently “strengthened” to meet safety requirements. Not quite the same thing.
they needed to use better AI. Facts.
Just have the AI design a smaller 3D printer to print the larger one.
Its printers all the way down
second day you say? why, by then we can have the second backup bridge designed, printed, and installed next to the first, so that is not a problem. every two days, a new bridge.
Only the second day? You're optimistic
Best i can do is 47 hours.
