I'm working for a company that's using it for sheet metal forming, you just upload an STL and robots make it out of a blank sheet.

Eventually we won't need dies anymore (good for environment) and will make sheet metal more efficiently (Jevons paradox territory, but we need to reduce total consumption anyways).

IMHO we should have Pigouvian pollution taxes and then let the market decide which ideas are worth pursuing.
