Using ChatGPT to make 3D animations using Python in Blender - In what sense does ChatGPT understand?

I've been using ChatGPT to help me with some 3D models and animations in Blender and thought it might be interesting to show how this works and use this as a context in which to explore the question of whether or not ChatGPT is actually understanding what I am asking it to do.

NOTE: The video is not just one take and is edited for narrative clarity and speed.

Whoa I had no idea there was a scripting area like that in Blender! And also a nice demo about ChatGPT use

This needs more than 300 views!

Very interesting model and it might seem obvious, but really good to have the perspective of using ChatGPT to speed up your work, rather than replace it. I liked that you speeded up the repetitive tasks (thanks)! I would love to see more like this!

Excellent!

Great demonstration. Like the other commenter I had no idea using python in Blender was so straightforward.

Awesome

Do you think that Chat GPT can create a blender script to create a 3d model form a picture?
