There are many software products that allow you to easy simulate the molecular structure of many compounds. These could be proteins, small carbohydrates and things that are quite easy to manufacture.
There is already software that allows you to design any 3d object.
I have read many articles that state that the future will be the same as it is today. Ignorant Rubbish.
There are a few key technologies that will change the world in a very short period of time.
The ability to model and re-arange molecules within a 3D virtual vorld and then "print" at the touch of a button simply points to the conclusion that we will be able to re-create anything in the future and in fact, build things that are far more difficult to manufacture because we actually don't need a special machine for manufacture of each one.
They are built from a molecular level by rearranging things such as carbon.
These things could potentially even be living things. -> although this requires some difficult questions to be addressed. We are already building 3d objects from ABS plastics, by inserting the plastic at a certain position and pre-determined point, when we can move anysubstance to any point, then things get interesting.
The ability to manufacture anything from basic food and shelter, (which we are already doing with manual labour), to repairing your own body parts, negates the need for current society and widens the imagination further.
How bout them apples?
This guy was the first link I clicked on, but explains the similar point.
