If you look into these, you will see many use traditional interior wall construction. As far as windows a concrete saw will cut the opening with no problem. Not much different from adding a window to an all-brick home. Most people buying a newly constructed home aren't looking to make modifications once it is built.
The operating word is PRINTED! I mess with a 3d plastic printer, and with CAD you design the print with whatever channels are needed inside. You're not CASTING, you're PRINTING. Major difference.
Most people with modern homes aren't looking for substantial renovations to begin with after they move in outside of things like custom wiring or renovating a kitchen with nicer counters etc. which concrete would offer great supports for.
The sound dampening of concrete would also be great!
Downside is, and this happens with foundations in the north, concrete expands as water freezes and this can cause expensive damage. I would imagine this would be a fear with fully concrete homes. A brick facade can be repaired without much issue, but that isn't always true for concrete.
All of the projects I have seen with the concrete homes have been in the South. I have watched some videos discussing the material and it uses polymer. I imagine with all the construction of major buildings in cities using concrete it all come down to design.

Use hempcrete, much better.
