Stability AI launches the Stability for Blender tool, enabling 3D modeling software to take advantage of generative AI.
Even 3D modeling software uses artificial intelligence image generators. Stability AI has just launched a precise Stability for Blender tool in this direction. As the name suggests, it’s about integrating Stable Diffusion imaging technology into open source 3D software. You can create AI-based textures, effects, and animations using your own 3D renders or simple text descriptions. You don’t even need to be a talented 2D artist to put the finishing touches on your project.
Stability AI Launches Stability for Blender Tool
Blender requires an API key and an internet connection for stability to work, but using this tool is free. No need for any other software or dedicated GPU. This can be especially useful if you need to do texture or video work on a laptop that isn’t as efficient as your main workstation.
This add-on should, in theory, allow users to save time and therefore money, as well as make your work more accessible. What’s more, according to Stability, you can create truly personalized content. One thing is for sure, this feature will be useful if you are going to use AI-powered image generators to avoid switching between apps and services.
to allow 3D modeling software to take advantage of generative AI
In any case, this new feature should not give Stable Diffusion any major advantage over competitors such as OpenAI’s DALL-E. The system will also not create 3D objects from scratch. To do this, you will need a tool like POINT-E. However, this is yet another example of how AI-assisted image generation can help creators without too many copyright issues, as Stability for Blender allows you to use your own creations to work with.
