Very cool. Now I would like you to describe "the Black Mirror scenario". That is, what is the cruelest, most despicable thing humanity can do with this tech, regardless of it's other more positive uses?
You could handle extremely dangerous material without human contact and at a really large diversity scale. So you can make a scenario where people use these to develop chemical or bio weapons.
Quite the opposite. You could handle material that can be handled by any other lab equipment (that's what lab equipment is for) at minuscule scales.
People have been producing Chemical- and Bioweapons already with stuff you can essentially order on amazon. If a large drug lab decided to do nerve agents they could probably do so.
Additionally you need surprisingly large amounts of these weapons to effectively target more than a couple people.
Fear of these things causing a doomsday movie like scenario where somebody combines the common cold with ebola in their garage are like fearing 3D printed guns when you might as well buy a fully automatic rifle at the next U.S. gun shop or E.U. criminal.
You misunderstood me I said the --diversity-- was large not the amounts. Also I was talking about screening scale, not production scale (I said develop).
