OpenAI has released Point-E, an open source AI system that can generate 3D point clouds given a text prompt.

OpenAI releases Point-E, which is like DALL-E but for 3D modeling Its resolution isn't great but it's up to two magnitudes faster than competing systems.

To simplify these processes, technological advancements have provided a solution: site surveys based on point clouds and 3D scanning, which have the potential to revolutionize the design process.

Laser-scanning technology can create exceptionally detailed 3D models of cultural sites, bringing them to life online—and helping experts restore them if disaster strikes.
