Bilawal Sidhu(@bilawalsidhu):It’s pretty wild how frontier LLMs have crossed the chasm on inverse graphics. Young founders will start decompiling reality, building RL environments, and print money doing it. Incumbents won't be too happy unless they're fast to adapt. Case in point -- I gave AI a 3D scan of my parents old house, and it rebuilt the room in Blender. Then I turned off the gravity. Here’s how it works: 1. ~400 photos I took in 2019 go through RealityScan and become a photogrammetry mesh 2. GPT-6 Astra rebuilds it as a clean, editable Blender scene, using the scan as reference 3. Scan textures become procedural materials. No downloaded assets 4. Every object is isolated and editable, so the physics just works Turning messy scans into scenes modeled the way an artist would used to take days of skilled work. Huge implications for VFX, AR/VR and robotics.
