LEGO-Anything agents generate editable 3D scenes from single photos but misjudge correctness

Researchers at the University of Maryland and AWS introduced LEGO-Anything, an Image-to-Code approach where coding agents iteratively write Blender code to reconstruct an editable 3D scene from a single photo. They also released LEGO-Bench (208 images from 104 simulated scenes, 443 assets) to evaluate validity, reconstruction, and appearance, finding GPT-6 Astra achieved the best scores (≈53.4% indoor, 39.6% outdoor) but models struggle with self-assessment and geometric accuracy; a no-training extension, LEGO-Plugin, fixes some failure modes and substantially improves weaker agents.

OpenAI announces Dots agent platform, rolling out to Pro users

OpenAI unveiled Dots, a new agent platform with customizable avatars and a cloud virtual machine that can access apps (e.g., Blender, GIMP) and the user’s computer via the ChatGPT desktop app. OpenAI is initially offering Dots to its highest-tier paid accounts (including the ~$100/month Pro tier); early testing shows mixed results on consumer tasks but stronger utility for controlled, work-focused workflows like website redesigns.
