OpenAI has released Point-E, an open-sourced machine learning system that can create a 3D object from a text prompt.

Point-E produces 3D models in a matter of minutes using a single Nvidia V100 GPU, according to a paper published with the code base.

Point-E doesn't create 3D objects in the traditional sense.

It generates point clouds or discrete data points in space corresponding to a 3D shape.

Point-E stands for efficiency, which is why it generates point clouds faster than other 3D object generation methods.

Point clouds are more computationally straightforward, but they can't capture the object's fine-grained texture or shape -- which is a major limitation of Point-E.
