I always take these statements with a grain of salt. This paper used absolute state-of-the-art AI methods and was still several person-months of work. And in the end it's just a proof-of-concept. AI is not magic (yet). https://doi.org/10.1016/j.patter.2023.100865

Yeah I think that's roughly correct. Definitely had that sense with my recent AI art piece (not sure if you've seen it). Changing the material just pulls in the typical style in which the material is used, not how it could be used in principle. https://clauswilke.com/art/project/human-shapes-of-matter
