3D Printing Meetup Topic: Artificial Intelligence and 3D Printing in 2025
Details
AI is everywhere in 2025. But how deep has it gotten into the world of 3D Printing? Will it ruin 3D printing for us all? Do we need to worry about it crossing the threshold from digital to physical? Can it help usher in a new phase of 3D Printing to make it more accessible to everyone? There's a lot to unpack here, both in terms of what is already possible, what is coming, and whether it's a good or bad thing, philosophically. This should be a very intriguing discussion! Good thing we've got a guest host, Lindy Trout, who will help guide the discussion.
Also for our October meetup the group is making Lithophanes! There are lots of ways to generate a lithophane, so I'm pretty interested to see what approach everyone takes! Not sure what a lithophane is, or how to create one? Here's a good overview from All3DP: https://all3dp.com/2/how-to-3d-print-your-own-lithophane.
