@stroughtonsmith Seeing all this makes me wonder how Codex would fare with building a Unity game project from scratch.

@simsaens I'm trying to recreate Valence3D based on what I see on the website, since Apple hired the developer and it's not likely to see any new development. So, for now, the visual identity isn't mine. As I keep progressing it, I expect that to diverge a lot more. I'm guiding Codex through it bit by bit, it wouldn't come up with anything like this on its own; but it can blast through a raytracer no problem
Valence 3D - Unleash your creativity in 3D anywhere & anytime.
Valence 3D is a new 3D modeling app designed for iPhone & iPad

@stroughtonsmith @simsaens This is all reminding me of how much I miss iTracer. https://page-online.de/tools-technik/itracer/

You know what I really could use at WWDC?
Teach a generative model to build high-quality vector SF Symbols so we can make custom ones, like say a full set for 3D modeling suites or PencilKit drawing apps, on demand
…asking for a friend…

@stroughtonsmith @stern what we need is a blender-light

@stroughtonsmith @stern that would be nice. But given how bad Creator Studio is, with its upsell nags - I hope it won't be. But who knows. World needs something like blender - free and good, but "light" . I know how to use blender but I still have to look up tutorials from time to time to do basic things. It has soooo many features!

Upgraded my raytraced renderer with bounce lighting and true reflections. Now it looks pretty legit!

'Could somebody with no programming experience recreate Photoshop with an LLM?'
I have absolutely zero Metal and near-zero 3D modeling experience. I know the basics of how to use a scene editor, and the names of rendering terms.
And I effectively vibecoded all of this in less than half a day with Codex 5.3 Medium, based on screenshots of a cool-looking app I've never used (Valence3D) and just a general sense of what a 3D app should do

Raytracing uses every last ounce of my poor M1 Mac mini's GPU. It has never seen such a workout

@stroughtonsmith I don't think hardware raytracing was added until M3 — that M1 GPU must be cooking!

@stroughtonsmith Did you build the path tracer yourself or is that a system library?
And what exactly will this tool do? I assume you're not building a full modelling tool.

@k0bin Codex built it from scratch. I don't know what it will do yet, I'm just experimenting

@edmn yeah it's not using hardware-accelerated raytracing. I don't know enough about the feature to know whether that would even be useful in multi-minute raytracing of static images rather than optimizing things for realtime

Since I am doing this on the GPU, not CPU, finding a way to render complex meshes without blowing the budget is a headache. There's a hard cap on how much work you can do before the Metal driver crashes

@stroughtonsmith add in some radiosity to really test it

@stroughtonsmith Sounds like you need to buy an M4 Mac mini!
