    There’s 3d printing as art, but then also 3d printing for utility. I use it primarily for the latter. For art I don’t want AI generated junk, so filtering that is ok, but I usually won’t like it if it’s Ai generated and can pick it out anyway. I don’t want barriers in Ai generated things like tool parts, shelf, etc. Though. All I care about there is quality. I want someone to have tested and reviewed it at least, but I’m not dogmatic at all about whether Ai produced it. I think the 3d printing community cares more about quality control on model libraries than just Ai gatekeeping.

      Nearly every 3d print that has an AI generated tag also has no actual pictures of a printed part.

      I think people just AI generate, than assume it’s fine and post it, but never actually print it.

      That’s why I keep the “no AI” filter on, really cleans up the junk posts.

        How I tried to get AI to generate an openscad file and it sucked.

        There is a render. I assume if the algorithm is “smart” enough to create a mesh it can also evaluate the overhang angle at every given point. I suspect they do. But yes it’s a good way of telling if anybody actually wanted to make this object or just habe a nice upload.

          No, that’s the problem. The algorithm is NOT good enough to determine if it is printable.

          People assume this and upload tons of crap models.

            Sorry but I can’t believe that. The slicer itself can determine what overhang needs support so it’s programmatically possible. Even if the AI hasn’t been explicitly trained to do the same it would have scanned the code for slicera and “learned” (more like stole) it itself.

            I am curious now. What is a state of the art AI tool to do stl? I think I will take a dive into this area
