One prompt, one hour: ChatGPT Pro builds interactive 3D atlas of 23 Hoysala temples
umesh_ai · x · 2026-11-03
After visiting several UNESCO-recognized Hoysala temples, umeshai gave ChatGPT Pro a simple prompt to build an interactive 3D website. About an hour later it produced the Hoysala Atlas: simplified 3D models of 23 temples explorable in the browser, with orbit/zoom controls, WASD first-person movement, cutaway views, and liftable roofs to study how the structures fit together. The site notes these are interpretive models based on cited sources, not survey-grade reconstructions. A striking example of ChatGPT directly producing a usable cultural-education 3D web app.
