AI-generated art is another intriguing string to the AI bow, but its problematic implications have led to the likes of Google taking steps to combat it. Shap-E is a different kind of project, a program that can create 3D images from prompts.
As Alex Nichol and Heewoo Jun explained in the May 2023 paper “Shap-E: Generating Conditional 3D Implicit Functions” (Cornell University), Shap-E is a step beyond similar tools. “Unlike recent work on 3D generative models which produce a single output representation,” the authors note, “Shap-E directly generates the parameters of implicit functions that can be rendered as both textured meshes and neural radiance fields.”
In less technical terms, Shap-E was developed to create its own 3D renders (not simple images) from visual or text prompts provided and to add a surprising degree of detail by focusing on the particulars of what it was asked to provide. As with many such generative AI programs, there’s a great degree of potential here, but also shortcomings to circumvent and learning potential to take advantage of.
