A new approach called LEGO-Anything turns single photos into editable Blender code for 3D scenes. GPT-6 Astra leads the accompanying benchmark with up to 53 percent reconstruction accuracy. The biggest weakness across all tested agents is that they can't judge their own geometric accuracy any better than a coin flip.

OpenAI's new Dots are always-on agents that run on their own cloud computers, where they fix bugs or send out forgotten invoices, sometimes before anyone asks. Users can reach them through ChatGPT, Slack, and Microsoft Teams. When no one is working with them, Dots look for ways to help in the background using read-only access.
