AI 3D Models Are Here To Stay // Trellis, Meshy, BlenderGPT

[@ShienlanMiitsues]

My goodness why am so early?! I uhh pin me maybe?

[@mariuspuiu9555]

pine you?

[@notvalid4061]

if ai takes my job I'm gonna become a criminal

[@FranzGu]

@@notvalid4061 hell yeah 🤙

[@GlitchDude]

Actually, coming in 2025, CrAIme is the latest in automated criminal activity technology, no need to become a criminal, when it can be done automatically in basically just 3 clicks! Select the category of crime, the location, and the date and time in which it should all take place, and just like that, you're done! Important: you are entirely liable for everything that happens, CrAIme does not take any responsibility

[@nurb2kea]

nope, AI can do that too....

[@GANONdork123]

Hey, if they can steal our work, why can't we steal their wealth?

[@mdaudyusof]

Im having trouble focusing on the content seeing u too close to the steering

[@nurb2kea]

He wanna be first when it hits...

[@erik....]

You're not really supposed to use the Blender name in your add-on so I guess BlenderGPT could be renamed very soon.

[@GANONdork123]

BlenderKit has been doing it for years so maybe they don't enforce it too strictly?

[@yesdadbut960]

Maybe its free to use ​@@GANONdork123

[@Laima-h4w]

back that carseat omg i feel the pain through the video pls

[@tomwestbay]

Ted was right

[@FredKennedyIV]

At the cost... of money.

[@TheLeonardProduction]

The creation of the photograph created more jobs than it replaced because only a very small fraction of the population could afford a custom painting. So the creation of AI generated art is gonna create more jobs than it'll replace digital artists, right? That's why tech companies are creating these AI tools, to hire MORE people, right? I'm sure the quality of the art is also gonna go up too :)

[@patborjon6778]

The quality of art is already going up in some cases. I've seen some incredibly beautiful AI artwork. It is a tool unlike any previous tools.

[@GlitchDude]

The "AI is bad quality" talking point really can't continue being used as a counter, with the amount of progress in literally every category of generative AI, and no sign of slowing down I'm not "pro AI replacing creative human jobs" I'm just stating what is happening in this field of technology, you can't just close your eyes and lie to yourself If you're concerned about job positions, focus on that, don't bring the generative AI quality into the discussion as an insult, cause it will just be used against you

[@JasonKey3D]

thanks for the rundown of the latest stuff in this area 🙏

[@Arc.M]

Thank you for keeping us up to date ❤

[@FranzGu]

5:00 In my opinion you cant apply the camera example to Generative AI. Yes It was new tech that replaced a lot of artists, but it was invented seperatly from those artists. AI however can only excist because it was fed with all the images artists made over the years and companies are profiting from all those without the artists getting anything. The inventor of the camera didnt need any artists. For this reason I think generative ai that was trained on images that the company didnt make themselfs should not be used and is unethical. Of course there Is a lot of stuff out that is unethical but just because one thing is it is okay for something else to be unethical. Another thing is also just way? Why would I want I shitty ai generated model If I could get someone to make me a 3d model thats 10x better. Also, for me atleast, when I look at an art piece, a lot of the time im not only impressed by how the final result looks but also that some one was able to make it. You could have an AI and a real Artist make the exact same picture an I would like the real one more because someone had the skill to make it. Lets take Ghibli as an example. The movies are amazing. And for me a big reason why they are so amazing is because people actually drew all of it. I would love to hear your opinion on it.

[@GifCoDigital]

How a technology is created is irrelevant, its impact is all that matters. For your second point... "why would I want some shitty small blurry plate with a badly lit image on it when I can pay an artist to paint a 10X better one!!!" A few decades later even the shittiest camera can outdo the best artist for realism.

[@ameyagupta7285]

for sure, another big thing is how like using a camera still required Artistry. it promoted creation of some sort, just in another medium. human innovation is unrelenting and it won't stop, but the sharp line of ethicality in this particular case comes when human creation is thrown out the window (and essentially degraded with how prolific these tools are becoming) and we just use a probabilistic "this is close enough to what i want" generator to approximate creativity. being left behind is scary but it's also arguably equally (or more) terrifying to really analyze what "being ahead" means and the consequences of everyone "being ahead".

[@volf7f8]

I do agree with all of this, personally the "You are scared that a man with a button outdid you" part is the only thing kinda rubbed the wrong way, I don't think among a lot of concept artist there is such fear ,a lot of incredible concept artist are the first to mention the importance of relying on photoscans or getting assets from other artists. Not at any point any of my friends were worried about the quality of such technologies or that they might be replacing us, however the carbon footprint, the obvious problem with copyrights and overall exploitative nature of their parent companies are the main concern. It seems like such a fancy toy some times, so many free assets already available so many versions of free pinecones on sketchfab (even if in the video he uses it as an example). I am aware, for more specific use cases such as the cabin might be useful but then again so many faster "Ian Hubert" approaches to make a simple cabin asset like that done. If you read this Mr.CGMatter obviously no hate uwu, just a disagreement with the use and utility of this technology Love your channel since the good ol first tracking tuts.

[@FranzGu]

@@GifCoDigital Ok well the Impact is pretty bad on the creative industry in my opinion so that does not make it any better. 2. You have a point here. 3D animation also used to look pretty bad. But AI can only get better If we feed it with more stuff and that is the problem in my opinion. It needs artists to become better at replacing them. Yes it will probably look really good at some point, but at what cost?

[@GifCoDigital]

​@FranzGu the impact on artists from the camera was "pretty bad" as well. Thats my point.

[@cepheus3d]

Mind boggling how many of these services use credits as a way to monetize lol You can really tell that half of these are made by tech bros

[@JacobZigenis]

What do you propose instead? I'm not sure I understand

[@dffgffffffdddddddddd]

​​@@JacobZigenisI never understand how you guys think the most natural and ethical way to approach everything is that most greedy and selfish method that makes things complex and overly complicated and they're actively gatekeeping something that has zero quality control and they're trying to monetize it. I propose you make some cool open source system and ask for donations, or you create an AI system that has some kind of consistent output or unlimited regens for free and an ethical system that isn't based on monetizing stolen art but I can't that isn't possible because you need to maximize profits at all times and the user experience must be terrible at all times You don't need to jump onto every trend just to make a bad product that will be bought up by adobe with some goofy subscription system and 100 different tiers and tokens and coins and credits and rupees just to access basic features that they will remove for no reason

[@JacobZigenis]

@dffgffffffdddddddddd Brother, what? Holy assumptions lmao. I just asked for the OP's thoughts on it. Compute isn't free, someone is paying the bills for server costs. I was asking for how the OP proposed monetization should occur to support such a service if not by credits. Credits mean you pay for what you use, which seems rather reasonable to me. The thing about a free market is that you don't have to use the service if you don't want to pay for it. Take a step back and breathe dude. I'm so baffled by how quickly you assumed everything about my beliefs instead of having a rational conversation. What a strange way to interact.

[@pushkarc28]

We love you CG matter. Keep making videos. And walk across america pls

[@eucharistenjoyer]

Thank God the 3D industry has already been using base meshes and kitbashing since time immemorial. It'll take some time for these meshes to be good enough to justify not using slightly edited basemeshes. If the mesh is specific enough to warrant an original model, it probably would be used in a close shot (otherwise a generic edited base mesh could be used) which would then require an actual "handmade" model, as these AI models suck ass the moment you get too close.

yep

[@haiphen8]

if I have to use Ai to make stuff, I'm just going to not make stuff. Unsubbed.

[@patborjon6778]

No one is making you use anything - calm down. He's just exploring the reality of what has been, where we're at, and what's coming down the pike.

[@DimiArt]

Like he said, The camera never destroyed traditional art. Computers and digital art never destroyed traditional art either they just created new avenues. As a 3D artist im hoping the same will happen with AI. As much as i hate that things are being stolen to create the models.

[@oysterenjoyer]

Idk man this just feels wrong. Most of us got into 3D to create and model things from scratch. This kinda ruins the fun and makes it feel extremely cheap. I don't want generative AI to be the future of blender. Can't think of a more boring future for artists.

[@shiccup]

i was just looking for a new 3d model generator as a i get into blender very cool!

[@MilezTailsPrower]

Ai models are to be made fun of. I don’t want to see any of you using them.

[@SakamiMura]

I'm just starting my thesis on creating a neural network for generating 3D models and I'm wondering what model to choose, for the moment I'm thinking about GAN

[@AnnCatsanndra]

Every time the "It's unethical to use references without consent", comes up, I think of the times through the years zI referenced poses and picked colors, or I borrowed a chord progression and smashed my favorite melodies together until I find something new that I like, and I'm like. "Yes, I see the existential threat for commercial artists. But this is... Kinda how it's always been? Now it's just easier?" I'm sure there are creative that never intentionally used references and instead only worked from ambient memories of what they've been exposed too and some happy accidents while working their tools. But that's definitely not most, and it kinda reinforces the fact that most creative protections (IP law) is a farce for the sole benefit of the moneyed, however we'll intentioned the laws may have started. I just kinda don't think people who trained these models should be allowed to "own" the if we're gonna keep calling them intelligent systems, or we're gonna fast end up dealing with neo-slavery. And I'm not even remotely joking.

[@gloriouslumi]

Progress waits for no one.

[@FranzGu]

You have a point here but I think there is a very big difference in looking at art to learn from It and become better as an individual person and giant coorperations profiting off of thousands of artists without their consent.

[@Keyboard_ink]

​@@gloriouslumi Profit isn't progress, and the fact that we can't stop it isn't a sign of it's inevitability it's a sign of our failure as a society.

[@jutraim2422]

​@FranzGu Agreed, I bet these technologies will be used to 100x the mass-production speed of slop content and ads very soon. I imagine someday I will wake up and get an AI-generated ad on my smartphone for another AI-generated video, movie, or game targeted explicitly toward me, prompted from all the data they stole through cookies and other stuff over the decade. Scary.

[@FranzGu]

@jutraim2422 yeah can't wait 😂💀
