Something like this is useful as well if you have a large item to convert since you can offload that processing to your server/NAS and not have it bog down your PC/phone/etc

I can’t tell you what they would do differently if they were Nazis

Speak German?

Have a functioning rail system?

I wonder if Hugo Boss is looking for contracts in military uniforms…

Definitely some “peaked in high school” vibes lol

We used to call them script kiddies

Probably analogous to command economy? Basically all industry is centrally planned, so it’s not company A decides it wants to make some widget and company b decides they want to use company A’s widget in their new product that they’ve independently decided to make. The government says we need <product> which needs <widget>, thus company A shall make <widget> and company B will use <widget> to make <product>.

This is by no means an accurate representation of the whole system or an opinion on either, but just to give a simple idea of the difference.

3d-printed concrete houses are already a thing, there’s no need for human-like machines to build stuff. They can be purpose-built to perform whatever portion of the house-building task they need to do. There’s absolutely no barrier today from having a hive of machines built for specific purposes build houses, besides the fact that no-one as of yet has stitched the necessary components together.

It’s not at all out of the question that an AI can be trained up on a dataset of engineering diagrams, house layouts, materials, and construction methods, with subordinate AIs trained on the specific aspects of housing systems like insulation, roofing, plumbing, framing, electrical, etc. which are then used to drive the actual machines building the house. The principal human requirement at that point would be the need for engineers to check the math and sign-off on a design for safety purposes.

When refining a process, it becomes exponentially more difficult and expensive the closer you get to 100% efficiency. 0-95% costs less than 95-99%, which costs less than 99%-99.99%
