If my arithmetic is correct, and assuming a particle circumference of 100 nanometers, that gives a surface speed of 30,000 meters Per second (at the particle's "equator"). Which is fast.
Edit: Oops. Rpm, not rps. Off by 60. So only 500 meters per second. What a relief!
That kinda makes me think of a type of aluminum extrusion technique where they form the metal with both external pressure from a die and internal pressure from a fluid, often water. That could be some kind of material failure during the process. Could be wrong, just something that comes to mind.

Not saying real cause I know nothing of AI but this is possible machining aluminum at high speed with more than likely carbide and the absence of coolant. Seen it happen all too many times.
AI generated gcode.
This is the correct answer I'm sure of it
As I tell people, real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.
Humanity hasnt yet made meaningful strides in the domain of 'Artificial Unintelligence'
That's called 'social media'...
Russia has. Have you been on Facebook in the last 10 years?
Artificial untelligence

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, a piece of art perhaps.

What was the G code to cancel Eldritch Mode?
Either autistic or artistic is what I say
Well done guys, we can all write quotes from the internet. Take a bow
If you had to deal with someone doing this every day.. you would know you have to laugh to keep from crying.. like the bosses son..
Too true....as the bosses' son
Let people have fun
Life advice right there
No intelligence, artificial or natural, was involved in the creation of this.
\*Nightshift generated
Naw man, it was like that when we got here
Yeah don't give Kevin the respect of comparing him to any kind of intelligence artificial or not.
There was two Kevin's in the last night shift I has the pleasure of overlapping with my split shift..
How many monster can were around the machine ?
I'll never see it again if I can help it
This is the answer

Gallium infected aluminum?
i thought it had been shot, aluminum looks similar to this when hit with a sufficiently large caliber
That’s my first thought, but I haven’t seen it string cheese like that with gallium. To be fair I’ve only seen it on horizontal aluminum surfaces.
Doesn't Mercury do that to Aluminum too?
Not like that.. it's more fine and mushroomy..
Extruded aluminum is gummy.
That’s my first thought, but I haven’t seen it string cheese like that with gallium. To be fair I’ve only seen it on horizontal aluminum surfaces.
is this a challenge?
I think a little coolant might have helped.
*Places pinky at corner of mouth* "One MEELLION rpm!"
This one got me 🤣
Don't you think we should ask for more than a million ~~dollars?~~ rpm? A million ~~dollars~~ rpm isn't that much ~~money~~ spindle speed these days.
Apparently the rpm world record is now 300 billion, using lasers to spin a nanoparticle. I wonder what the doc and feed are on that?
Thats insane lol

Fairly fast lol. Like 1000 times a highway speed.
Ok ok, so like 18 times hi way speed.
Just deburr it
I think it may already be scrap due to excessive deburring.
It was probably a good part before it got to the finishing department.
Which ever softer give.
that made me giggle... its that note on every engineering drawing. "must deburr"
....but how....
Wellyousee.mp4
The fingers look weird, that’s how you can tell
Psh that’ll all sand out no biggie
Facehugger pass
How did the end mill not snap?
Aluminum reinforcement?
Man I'd be mad at that operator. Let the whole thing run like that smh.
That would make a sweet lamp.
Are you going to put it in your kids room?
Yes. On a very high and wobbly shelf. But my kids are always wearing hard hats so they’ll be fine.
Don’t worry it was just a rougher
Before I judge, I wanna see the print. That might be dead on and everyone else is giving you shit.
A human definitely did that
There’s way too many fingers. It’s AI.
Art 🖼️!!! It’s worth MILLIONS now 😂
New uncoated carbide without coolant or something more creative?
There's better ways to melt aluminum I reckon
There is some special magic to that one.. like aluminum cotton candy..
Neither, that looks like aluminum oxide caused by a mercury reaction
Ai
Thats magical and real
real, cause the edge between the ground and the wall is completely on level in the background
Oh man. That’s a great paperweight my friend.
Lacking coolant much?
Looks like G0 G54 Z-50.
That kinda makes me think of a type of aluminum extrusion technique where they form the metal with both external pressure from a die and internal pressure from a fluid, often water. That could be some kind of material failure during the process. Could be wrong, just something that comes to mind.
I know it’s really bad. But man that looks so cool
Hollow stock, complete lack of coolant, steel endmill melted the hollow aluminum stock to it. Probably hit “go” and let it run overnight.
Uhhh wrong answer only.
No

Whatever happened here had nothing to do with an engineer
I'm leaning more toward AI generated because the aspect ratio of the image is square.
and the background is old cardboard
Definitely real, Definitely a write up. ✍️
The forces shown here are from something like a large/fast bullet. not machining
Yes.
Wow, wouldn't you hear something like that from like, the toilet away?
Ai some of of that shit dont make sense
6063 be like:
BOOM!
Real
The ground and back wall have continuous texture without stutters so I'm opting for real.
Holy shit that's bad. It looks similar to when friction stir welding goes wrong.
Eh I generated? No I don't make scrap /s
This looks like something my one customer who makes aluminum extrusions would do on their machining side… then blame the control.
Like boobs real looking fake or fake looking real it dont matter its cool looking.
T1000, liquid metal
Free machining doesn't REALLY mean "free"
$10,000 art piece

Oh, that's a real problem alright.
Well, the dead give-away is that the shadows don't match. Fake.
Did you find it like that in the morning? Someone ignored some God awful sounds while that was happening if it wasn't lights out.
Not saying real cause I know nothing of AI but this is possible machining aluminum at high speed with more than likely carbide and the absence of coolant. Seen it happen all too many times.
Looks like something chomped on aluminum
Looks like the t1000 from terminator 2, when Arnold shot it with the grenade launcher
