Santiago (@svpino) describes SKY-001, an engineering world model that takes a text prompt or image and generates a 3D assembly. In his examples, it breaks a design into smaller parts, models each part in 3D, and assembles them.
The quoted announcement from @spisallyouneed says SKY-001 beats GPT-6 Astra and other frontier models tested on CAD and BIM tasks, with 51-125x faster speed and 150-210x lower cost.
Great way to explore new product concepts or compare alternatives with 3D designs!
This is an engineering world model.
You give it a text prompt or an image, and it generates a 3D assembly.
Look at the examples: it breaks a design into smaller parts, creates each part in 3D, and assembles them.
Introducing SKY-001, the first Engineering World Model. On CAD and BIM tasks, it beats GPT-6 Astra and every frontier model we tested: -> 51-125x faster - > 150-210x cheaper -> Higher IOU than all frontier models SKY-001 lets you dream a physical object before you build it. 18 months of work. Built by the team out of Maluuba's deep learning lab (acq. by @MSRResearch). The first ‘AI General Engineer’ will be the backbone for Autonomous Manufacturing.
