So "computer science" simply refers to the gathering and processing of data, so the material applications ?

I mean, when does femtotechnology find the necessary atoms to 3D print items ? I very much doubt "thin air" holds enough ambient atoms to build concentrated structures the way 3D printers do. They would still require a sufficient supply of raw materials, though admitedly they wouldn't be hard to find with the capability to convert any into any other, combined to intricate teleportation.

Still, isn't the concept of perfection inherently fluctuating and elusive even on the personal level ? Wouldn't the ability to easily achieve/become what they want only lead to the realization that perfection is an ungraspable abstraction ? That no matter what they do, lacks/flaws of one nature or another always remain/appear, especially since the idea changes alongside the very process of pursuing it ?

Everything is working so damn well for mankind, how comes MAGNUMOPUS doesn't realize how unneeded it is ? Does it simply have a case of AI insanity, preventing it from grasping the obvious ?
