The post-slop era: AI agents building Blender 3D models indistinguishable from human work
Aizkmusic · x · 2026-09-04
The author argues we are entering a "post slop era" of AI content generation: once AI can handcraft 3D models in Blender like a human, AI output will become indistinguishable from professional human art.
- He expects Blender-adjacent fields to fall first given its extensibility and community, while audio domains like music will be among the last since models still can't "hear" music like we do
- Slop will persist, but skilled creators will use computer use to produce genuinely creative 2D/3D work
- He frames Astral as the shift toward "ultimate computer use": next-token prediction is trivial; completing the next task a user sees on screen is the new benchmark
