• We are releasing our Cube 3D foundational model for generative AI.
  • We are also open-sourcing a version of the Cube 3D foundational model.
  • The beta version of Cube 3D mesh generation—in Roblox Studio and as an in-experience Lua API—will be available this week.

    This sounds like open weights but not actually open source (which requires an open training set), but we can only hope they are true to their promises when they actually release it. Bonus points if they also release how much energy they wasted to train it and how much energy it wastes to run it.

    Does anyone know of other text-to-3d models out there that are free and open source? I have a heck of a 3d printing hobby, and would love to generate some 3d models from prompts, clean them up, and then 3d print them.

    I’ve been impressed by how quickly gen-AI 3D models have become somewhat useful. I expected that with the significantly lower training data than text and images it would take longer, but maybe 3D files have a lot more tagging and metadata by virtue of being “new” compared to text and images, making them more useful for training AI?

    As much as I enjoy modeling, I must admit I’m somewhat excited about a future where I can think up something to 3D print and not have to spend hours in Blender.
