It combines Microsoft's TRELLIS 3D generation system with GPT-4 reasoning, letting users highlight and fix structural issues using natural language and sliders. In tests recreating flawed models from Thingiverse, novices identified and corrected nearly 90 percent of structural problems despite having no prior 3D modeling expertise. Example outputs include a dragon-themed mug, butterfly-wing glasses, a denim-look knee brace, and a shrimp-shaped robot. Future plans include AR integration and physics simulations to predict real-world durability. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
