What A 3D Printer Does When You Give It Artificial Intelligence
Other than professional curiosity, there probably isn’t much reason to give a 3D printer artificial intelligence and allow it to print whatever it wants. But when you do, the results are somewhat magical.
The idea behind this project, and some of the things it produced, are a beautiful example of what happens when you combine tech savvy with bravery and curiosity. Almost everything we ask a machine to make, we specify first. This was the opposite, a machine left to decide for itself what was worth making.
What else could AI come up with without our intervention? I want to know now more than ever.

A Short Backstory Of This Blog
This is a blog about non-obvious ideas.

In 2015 Rohit officially rebranded to the Non-Obvious Insights Blog and published his WSJ bestseller Non-Obvious. For the past twenty one years, this blog has coined new terms, introduced future marketing practices and inspired the next generation of non-obvious thinkers and marketers.
