The Meta Corporation presented its latest development – the 3D Gen generator, which allows you to create high-quality 3D models based on text prompts. Company representatives claim that 3D Gen is able to create three-dimensional objects and textures in less than a minute. This major breakthrough in AI-driven 3D graphics could revolutionize a number of industries: game development, industrial design, architecture, and more.

The system consists of two main elements: Meta 3D AssetGen (creates 3D meshes) and Meta 3D TextureGen (generates textures). Together, they provide the creation of three-dimensional models with detailed textures and materials. According to representatives of Meta, the generation is much faster than in competing systems. The user gets results 3 to 10 times faster.

3D Gen differs from similar platforms, such as Midjourney and Adobe Firefly, in its ability to physically based rendering (PBR). This significantly increases the realism and quality of the models created by it. The introduction of PBR materials will provide significant progress in the creation of 3D content with the help of artificial intelligence. Usually, 3D models created by AI have shortcomings in the realism of lighting and textures, which limit their use in professional projects. Now, with Meta's 3D Gen, they will be able to respond adequately to a variety of lighting conditions, making them more suitable for various industrial and creative fields, including video games and architectural projects.

Meta 3D Gen is one of the key AI innovations guaranteed to impact digital content. Its ability to quickly create universal 3D models opens up new opportunities for creativity in the digital world, democratizing the production of 3D content and driving innovation in a number of other industries.
