A banger video about applying sintered traces to 3d printed models... BUT more interesting then that is the use of ChatGPT to "exfiltrate" unpublished formulas for the cooper plating solution.

In the video at 8:10 Ben goes through his exhaustive search of trying to make a solution that would work, and details that all the labs keep it more or less a secret, but the application of a LLM revealed the difficult to find steps/formula needed.

Obviously ChatGPT gobbled this up somewhere... just published on the internet but Ben didn't find it? Or did ChatGPT get trained on internal/corporate documents and the LLM is actually democratizing this information?

AS also commented on it in the video comments - seems like the company is building everything from scratch (including customer support) and missed an easy solution of just sending that guy a new unit once serious errors were occuring.

He is right, don't buy Kickstarter devices as products at best they are dreams that might come true one day.
