The AI for Content Creation workshop is kicking off today at #CVPR2025 - Grand Ballroom A1 - @magrawala.bsky.social Kai Zhang (Adobe), Charles Herrmann (Google), Mark Boss (Stability AI), Yutong Bai (UC Berkeley), Cherry Zhao (Adobe), Ishan Misra (Meta) and @jonbarron.bsky.social ! See you soon!

[2/2] Work led by @avalovelace.bsky.social, @kangledeng.bsky.social, Ruixuan Liu, and CMU faculty Changliu Liu and Deva Ramanan. LegoGPT is a small first step towards generative manufacturing of physical objects. Current version is limited to 20x20x20, 21 object categories, and simple brick types.

[1/2] We've released the code for LegoGPT. Our autoregressive model generates physically stable and buildable designs from text prompts by integrating physics laws and assembly constraints into LLM training and inference.

One day walking home, I noticed a dry cleaners across the street. “Was that always there?” I thought. A little Googling revealed that it was on my street longer than I have.

3D content creation with touch!

We exploit tactile sensing to enhance geometric details for text- and image-to-3D generation.

Introducing Generative Omnimatte:

A method for decomposing a video into complete layers, including objects and their associated effects (e.g., shadows, reflections).

It enables a wide range of cool applications, such as video stylization, compositions, moment retiming, and object removal.
