I started trying to do this with a STEP file and then realized that an STL would make way more sense. Of course someone has already beat me to it! Nice one dude

[@AndrewSink]

Thanks! I’m sure there are many other file formats that we could use to make parts!

[@StellaTheAnimator]

[@Zachomara]

You're supposed to delete the default cube. Everybody knows that.

[@Berkzian]

lol i like how chatgpt's first move is "delete the cube" like every blender tutorial on yt lol!

[@AndrewSink]

ChatGPT is really one of us 😂

[@BRUXXUS]

Very cool! As someone that’s not a coder, I haven’t had any luck trying to get chatGPT to generate working, self-contained code. HTML, JS, GLSL, Shadertoy. Although, I have been trying stuff that may be a little ambitious. 😂 I had often wondered if it could generate raw STL. This gives me the answer! Wild.

[@techdiyer5290]

You kinda have to work it in, i sometimes ask a question about python libraries that would work for a certain project, then ask it to give me an example. Then it will give you a response in the development environment. Sometimes when you type continue it restarts it, so you might have to say continue from the previous response or from where you left off in the previous response, or tell it to continue in the development environment, or to continue in the same environment.

[@bill2009utube]

It does a decent job generating openscad source code which you can compile to generate an stl.

[@LofiEngineer]

I will try it! Thanks Andrew:)

[@AndrewSink]

You’re welcome! Hope you have fun with it!

[@LofiEngineer]

@@AndrewSink I hope you enjoy with my live stream too in your work shop:)

[@dcx45]

started in similar fashion, but was getting stuck. "continue" was the trick, cheers!

[@AndrewSink]

Glad I could help!

[@user-account-not-found]

What is easier here - is to have it generate a function to output the STL file. A cube and its points are very basic and the math to render them simple. From this ask it to write more advanced portions or rewrite the function so that it is parameter driven.

[@MikeCarr07]

I asked and it generated python code to create an stl file of a globe, I asked "create an stl model of a globe", it gave me similar answers as in the video then when I said continue it generated the code. Pretty cool stuff

Muito legal e interessante 👏👏👏👏👏

[@CASSDesigns]

Wow cool stuff! I found out about ChatGPT last week and had it code a text-based RPG in Python, this is just as wild as that

[@AndrewSink]

Nice work! I wonder if you describe some of the elements of your RPG and create 3D models of them?

[@glitchtulsa3429]

Just a random note, Chat-GPT tells you to "right click" in Blender to delete the default cube. Well, as a long-time Blender user that had to force myself to stop using the right click to select in Blender(and still do it from time-to-time), I can accurately say that Blender changed that behavior in 2.8--it's been a left click for a few years now.

[@AndrewSink]

Ah, that's a great point!

[@glitchtulsa3429]

@@AndrewSink I love that it tells you to delete the default cube in order to make a cube--which I am also guilty of doing. I don't know how many times I've opened Blender, deleted the cube only to realize that I actually needed to start with a cube. Force of habit, and all that.

[@battlepassTrading]

Chat gpt database is only up to the year 2020

[@arkanthorartist__maker8328]

As someone who mostly learned Blender in the last couple years, this makes perfect sense that a GPT model would get this sort of thing wrong. I found that Blender, more than any other software I've ever learned, has a repeating issue when you are trying to look something up online. If you search for how to do something, the tutorials and resources that come up are often terribly out of date. I often had to tell Google to "search within the last year" or else I would get answers from 8+ years ago. And newer resources often have very low views in comparison from some forum thread that hasn't been relevant in forever. This is because Blender changes so often, but even more with poor SEO optimization on relevant forums (that popular threads come up first, regardless of age). I think that is to blame for a lot of the glitches people are getting when interfacing GPT4 and such. It may not be obvious, but the conflicting information probably leads to poor reinforcement during backpropogation of the neural network, causing unreliable results (because the network has to guess which is the right answer).

[@q3inventions795]

Cool! I did something similar without creating a file, simply asking for the G-code for simple shapes.

[@AndrewSink]

Cool!

[@gamingwithbean7961]

Damn I think they might of reviewed this because I have tried the same exact question as you a couple times and it just keeps telling me how to create the cube in the different software like it did for you in the video. I tried with two other basic objects and still did not work.

[@Forty8-Forty5-Fifty8]

so who owns the copyrights for the generated cube?

To model a 3D cube 1. Open blender 2. Delete default cube 3. Add a cube Jajajajajja Didn’t know that the gptchat understands Blender humor

[@roybatty2268]

The thing is, GPT is using its "learned" from other human creator data to come up with the most likely words. Everyone deletes the cube, so it went with the percentages and deleted the cube!

[@winumoritribe8425]

Yeah, it learned from humans (blenderers) so it does as the blenderers do. Lol.

How to integrate ChatGPT with AutoCAD, StaadPro and ETabs?

[@fluxcapacitor]

Is the opposite possible, i.e. uploading an existing 3D CAD file (STL, USDZ, GLB, whatever) as an input into ChatGPT then using it via DALL•E to generate extended images from this file, embedding it into scenery and situations?

[@AndrewSink]

Great idea! I’ll give it a shot!

I tried also openscad, I think it is better to ask for openscad "code" because is is shorter, so easier for chatgpt.

[@theodorsjostedt]

I've found that you can interactively work together with ChatGPT on a Python function, so conceptually it would not be a big leap to work on OpenSCAD files either, but the much smaller size of training data for OpenSCAD vs Python probably makes this hard in practice.

[@arreshubham]

or you can simply ask to write python script for blender creating and modifying the cube

[@HayzTV]

Good video and very helpful! Is it possible to make it for 3d modeling in blender using the python api? Because I tried it but I'm getting errors in line 29 and I even tell ChatGpt to fix it, it fixed but still getting error in blender! I just want it to do a simple chair 3d model using blender python api. Maybe you should try and see or tell me better way to do it. I'm not a programmer but I know how to copy and paste 😂😂 Thanks

[@JJuansthat3Dguy]

How do you send it to the slicer if you only have the STL? When I do it only opens the code?

[@neoqueto]

ChatGPT is really bad at non-syntactical structures. Things that are not language, things that are irregular from a natural language standpoint. It can't "draw a smiley face using HTML and CSS", "write your name in ASCII art" or "generate a model of a house in the form of an STL file". It maybe can make a cube, barely, because that's not as abstract, and same goes for other non-abstract tasks, maybe a grid, maybe a piece of code that will generate a torus. But not a vertex-by-vertex description of a torus.

[@oolong2]

Not cool at all. The biggest problem with ChatGPT is it requires that the user has knowledge to fix problems with things that it generates. If all you're doing is creating a cube, since it isn't capable of doing anything more complicated than that, a beginner would be far better off creating the cube in whatever generic software that came with their 3D printer than using ChatGPT which will only give them a messed up model. I'm sure this will improve in the future, but today it just isn't there and will only cause frustration for people.
