Default Cutting aluminum using carbide saw

Hi to all,

Someone at the metalshop where i was buying a few aluminum flat bar tell me that aluminum (series 6000) could easily be cut using a table saw if the blade is made of carbide teeth.

Does someone has the experience of doing this and what about the results and safety of it ?
