AI Designed a Pool Cue and I Built It

Artificial intelligence designed a pool cue and I built it. Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

I’ve been playing pool off and on for the last 30+ years. It’s refreshing to see those different proportions on the butt/grip/forearm lengths. I really like it like that and it especially lends itself well to being wrapless which is all I play with these days. And being an IT professional I absolutely love what this cue represents. Do you have a buyer for it yet. If you don’t I’d be interested. If you do I’m sure they will love it. Thanks for sharing your journey on this one!

[@cactusneedles3184]

Looks great! The accuracy of your projects is always intimidating, even to watch. Your machines interest me as much as the cue does! Also octopuses in your cue 3:26.

[@MetalCave420]

The best part is you still added your artistry to the cue itself. Making it more unique! It looks amazing. I'm sure finding a buyer won't be a problem.

[@cosmicraysshotsintothelight]

Ai will spare you, but PinHead will then appear

[@mikeburkhardt5590]

Love watching your videos. Your cues just keep getting better.

[@Strokey12]

Awesome work! Beautiful cue!

[@kelho46]

Without a skilled set of hands AI is only a great tool, have serious doubts if it will ever go beyond that… Great job sir 👏👏

[@ProLevelAVG]

AI has serious doubts about the human race, as well. Game on.

[@frederickrocas9666]

I'm interested in the cue.

[@RaysRacing1]

Beautiful. Always grateful to see a video of yours.

[@WminusU]

Always excited when I see a new video! Thanks for sharing your process.

[@albertolubonting2651]

Always facinates me the level of detail and passion in every work you do. I just wish at one point I can have a cue done by you to display. Goodluck to your future build.

[@TheCicakfly]

Beautiful cue...

[@deeray4974]

Love your videos man

[@neenie217]

Where can I purchase one of your creations. This one is phenomenal.

[@srchastain859]

Nice work, as always!!

[@wannabeme7206]

Hey! Been watching you for quite some time now and I must admit, Im inspired. I really would love to go into cue making but I dont know what equipments to use. Can you make a video on what basic equipments and tools needed for this?

[@joeyq1497]

Wow! Great craftsmanship!

[@signaltwenty4935]

Awesome work!

[@MadAl2003]

From one al to another great looking cue keep doing what you do!

[@mehmetakifsirin9915]

excellent workmanship. You are great. You should start making 3 cushino cues

[@johnallen9583]

U r the coolest. I love it!

[@slabcity76]

Yeeeess lol! Black Sheep, i’m a 90s kid too. Such good work and really amazing to see how you do it. I can’t imagine the other Cue makers out there being thrilled about your existence. But many of them got it coming. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for you. Thank you for shaking things up. 👍🏻

[@velikayim2182]

Another great cue! So, how do people buy your cues? Do you make them on demand?

[@ccshortfuse]

Crazy craftsmanship and attention to detail. Though compressed, design time and actual creation time are staggering. Well done 👏 I'd love to just sit and watch the process. Though my questions would be endless 😵‍💫

[@benjaminbritt4778]

Is there a way to commission you to make me a cue?

[@cardguys]

Really stellar cue!

[@stevescott3104]

Sir your work is simply amazing. You have a true gift at some point in my life I will be able to buy such a great cue

[@abrahamagdamag9275]

Dreams no longer exists as dreams, you and your machines makes it a reality… will just continue to watch you….

[@Diabolic67th]

Those proportions look way better in my opinion. The 5in butt end always looks empty even on most customs but if they try to fill it with designs then it looks too busy. I think designers (and the commercial producers) should move away from the typical proportions and try more different things.

[@Ryan_Nalty]

Very much agree with this. Just received a new cue today and it has a gorgeous leopard wood handle but the bottom is just black to match the upper portion. It's not terrible but I do think it would have looked better with the leopard wood all the way to the base and the black at the top, which I do think, blends better into the carbon fiber shaft than the wood would have.

[@user-vy4ht1pp4q]

which type of cnc do you use? I love your work.

[@mhf1979]

Bro as I said the group I love your design on this cue beautiful. 😊

[@lewishess4942]

Thanks for putting your work up! Super fascinating. Beautiful stuff. Old guy who appreciates some black sheep as well🤙

[@Rubster760]

[@CharlesSnyder]

Beautiful! Ask Chatgpt if it wants to see it's handiwork,then upload photos of the cue.

[@ironhat2]

[@billygiles2915]

[@Bart_Depestele]

Nice bro

[@jamesfretwell1592]

what's theebest advice you could give someone that wont's to get in to cue making

[@Monstah7]

Don't forget to create an app for it mate..👍 Then follow it up with batteries and a lazer sight..

[@ponponaudio9238]

The pattern on the shield is like the pattern on the shield of one of the tribes in Indonesia

[@SirGrnthmb]

Where can one purchase one of your cues. Wife wants a nightmare b4 christmas. Could you build?

[@tedshickell7315]

How much do you charge for a stick

[@TheShewmake]

How much for the cue?

[@jasonjohnson7411]

Another banger! 🤟🏻🇺🇸🎱

[@gmoney1065]

How do i even buy one of your sticks. I messaged you a month ago about buying one from some that you had posted. I am very interested.

[@dieter-4977]

i believe all his work is commission based, so if you saw a cue, it already has a owner.

[@algiedelmundo]

So sad

[@jbk1437]

Too many adverts man

[@theaveragejoebody]

You are super talkative on your other channel but zero talking here. Getting down to business

[@algiedelmundo]

Is it possible that your wonderful work pass to us so we can use it to? Pls lead as a way how thank you so much

[@kelvinfebo2360]

i wish i have one of your masterpiece.... im from philipines we love playing billiards

[@breakshot7451]

this no buyer thing will change immediately;))

[@eeanwei5741]

I would love to buy this cue. Amazing work! I have been following your KZbin Chanel for a while and truly enjoy your work.

[@edgaruson4702]

31" Butt how about the shaft sir how long are you gonna put a standard 29"

[@jesseholman6908]

How much is something like that

[@waqarghulam3548]

I think the CG location, the compressive strength of the tip section, and such things are more important than art work

[@kobayashijogja481]

It would be an honor for me if you sold it and I could try it..😊😊

[@justnznz]

How can i contact you to build me a playing cue?

[@Kevin-78]

Yeah, I've messaged on Instagram and no response. I'd also like to know how to get in touch with him.

[@coreyano]

Need better shots at the end

[@jeffallen3382]

Skynet... 🤣

[@9thdeltaconcepts652]

whn you offer to show the AI what youve made with its design, it will say....."i know"

[@user-nn7wx1mi3k]

멋진큐 입니다

[@scottmarceaux5392]

Ok so how much to sell it to me

[@user-ip3yw8hc1k]

💥💥💥

[@heyyomrz6232]

Nhưng tác phẩm nghệ thuật tuyệt vời, anh bạn đúng là 1 nghệ nhân

[@lyalsimon9618]

Would you like to sell?

[@cj-ef1rp]

It is not surprising at all that the AI engines you used had no idea how to design a cue. ChatGPT for instance, is nothing more than a repository of knowledge but it lacks all “wisdom”. Getting design recommendations from it is no different than searching Wikipedia or Reddit. The difference between knowledge and wisdom is best explained as: knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad. AI is asked for the best fruit salad recipe would not return one that had a tomato because all of its examples (data for tuning) never referenced a tomato. But it would not understand why a tomato should not be in it. So, you can iterate your designs with these tools, but they’ll never have the creativity your humans judgement possesses for aesthetic or elegance. Keep up the wonderful work-

[@dalo3696]

First to ask for it gets it?😅 Can I get that?

[@antonlim958]

I want to subcribe you sir ❤

[@dj90sclassical42]

Looks no different

[@R.L.Thomas]

The cue builder used AI to design a cue? Kinda makes me wonder if the cue will be any good, since all the attention to detail wasn't created by the builder. Good craftsmanship begins in the mind.

[@robertbyington7715]

WHAT are you talking about the craftsmanship is in the detail; regardless of where the design came from you still have to execute the workmanship that made it happen. Geeze.

[@R.L.Thomas]

Probably because I am not a fan of AI considering A stands for Artificial which ids defined as not real you knw fake? And i knew a couple of cue makers down in Florida back in the 80's and 90's when I was an avid player. They designed by hand and built the same way.@@robertbyington7715

[@S.Saylor1014]

You’re lost bud. You have no idea what you’re talking about. Stop being negative and get your DoorDash dinner order in

[@R.L.Thomas]

@@S.Saylor1014 No I'm not lost, I am one who refuses to be controlled by Artificial, you know FAKE intelligence. If it is your choice to worship AI by all means go right ahead. I have known a couple of cue buildrers in S. FLa when I played, one who is past on, the other is Dennis Searing who hand designs and builds. He has a multi year waiting list for his products. No mass production, quality like the cues made by Balabushka. I don't know what you mean by negative because I expressed my opinion, but your response seems more negative with the door dash crack. i won't attack you in any way because or make any snide remarks towards you because people shouldn't do that.

[@markbramer8473]

​@R.L.Thomas he didn't put the design completely in AI's hands. He iterated it over a period of weeks, and wasn't satisfied until it gave him something that HE thought was beautiful. He's just using AI as a tool for inspiration, not as his master. If you don't recognize the skill of the various disciplines that he's combined to create this cue, then I question your "I".

[@davidblalock1709]

You may want to contact Steve Meade and ask what kind of tape he uses for his CNC machines. Has to be better than the super glue. 🫣 Fantastic build as always.
