Made In Space makes ceramic turbine part in orbit in another 3D printing milestone.


The microwave-sized CMM makes parts via "stereolithography," which uses an ultraviolet (UV) laser and UV-curable resin. This 3D-printing technique can make complex objects such as turbine blisks with a high degree of accuracy, Made In Space representatives said.

The CMM is a pathfinder, a machine designed to demonstrate that intricate and economically important ceramic components can be made in microgravity for use here on Earth. And Made In Space thinks there's good reason to take the manufacture of such objects off the planet.

"Manufacturing turbine components in microgravity could produce parts with better performance, including higher strength and lower residual stress, due to a reduction in defects caused by gravity, such as sedimentation and composition gradients," company representatives wrote in a description of the CMM this past September. "This technology demonstrates potential use of the space station for unique manufacturing capabilities which could increase commercial utilization of ISS."

This is some Arthur C. Clarke level stuff. Nice!

"You used to have to tell computer programs exactly what you wanted them to do," says Schoppe. "Neural networks don't need such instructions:" It's sufficient to train them by presenting a problem and a solution multiple times. Gradually, the algorithms start to recognize the relevant patterns and are able to find the right solutions themselves."

So Skynet, here's the problem...

Diamagnetic levitation. Anything can float in a magnetic field. A while back some really smart, probably a little crazy,guys floated a frog, mouse, plants, fruit and probably some other stuff in a magnetic field and won a nobel prize for it.

The magnetic field has to be insane. Like have your own power grid type of power requirements. It works on the atomic level.

Biomarkers in mother's plasma predict a type of autism in offspring with 100% accuracy.


Using machine learning, researchers at the UC Davis MIND Institute have identified several patterns of maternal autoantibodies highly associated with the diagnosis and severity of autism.

Their study, published Jan. 22 in Molecular Psychiatry, specifically focused on maternal autoantibody-related autism spectrum disorder (MAR ASD), a condition accounting for around 20% of all autism cases.

"The implications from this study are tremendous," said Judy Van de Water, a professor of rheumatology, allergy and clinical immunology at UC Davis and the lead author of the study. "It's the first time that machine learning has been used to identify with 100% accuracy MAR ASD-specific patterns as potential biomarkers of ASD risk."
 
What Exactly Is A Non-Fungible Token or NFT?



Yet another potential use is in digital art, by helping prove authenticity and ownership.

Artwork is another example of how powerful NFTs can be. By allowing artists to create artwork on the blockchain as NFTs, it means their content now becomes sellable globally, on decentralized marketplaces. Providing a means to collect, earn, and make a living off crypto.



I wonder, could you do something like create loot in a game and sell that?

Or, create a character / level it up / then trade/sell that?

Of course. In fact, I guarantee you someone is going to figure out how to use it for games and porn. There's probably a rule of thumb for that like Flint's Law or something. :D
