Roblox's new AI model can generate 3D objects
Briefly

Roblox has announced the launch of Cube 3D, its foundational AI model for creating 3D objects, which is also being open-sourced. This innovative model aims to streamline the 3D creation process, allowing developers to quickly generate and evaluate new ideas. Cube 3D predicts 3D shapes by tokenizing them, similar to how text-based AI models operate. The training data comprises various licensed sources and Roblox's internal ecosystem. Future plans include expanding Cube 3D to support multitasking with different media types, thus enhancing its integration with existing AI tools for broader creative expression.
"With Cube, we intend to make 3D creation more efficient," Roblox says in a press release. "With 3D mesh generation, developers can quickly explore new creative directions and increase their productivity by deciding rapidly which to move forward with."
Roblox explains, "We've built the ability to tokenize 3D objects and understand shapes as tokens and trained Cube 3D to predict the next shape token to build a complete 3D object."
The actual data used to train the model includes "a combination of licensed and publicly available datasets, as well as experience data from the Roblox ecosystem," says spokesperson Samantha Spielman.
Roblox states, "It will ultimately be a multimodal model, trained on text, images, video, and other types of input - and will integrate with our existing AI creation tools."
