It takes years of practice to become expert in modeling or animation, resulting in a field full of deep experts, but one surrounded b y a moat so wide it has hamstrung the broader goals of computer graphics a s a rich and accessible form of human communication.\n\nTwo recent works f rom Australian researchers point toward the advent of a new generation of tools that harness artificial intelligence in a balanced tension between e xpertise and creativity. 3D-GPT [ Sun et al., 2023 ] eschews the ‘diffuser ’ models for a deeper and more complex tool chain, providing a rich, lingu istic interface to a parametric tool. CICADA [ Ibarrola et al., 2022 ] sho ws how drawing - a most human form of communication - can be redesigned to provide ‘space’ for both humans and artificial intelligences to co-occupy and co-create in a manner that enhances collaboration. \n\nCombined and g eneralised, these efforts define a template for a new class of creative to ols that ‘handle the boring bits’ while simultaneously acting as handmaide ns and amplifiers of human creativity. These ‘Next Tools’ bridge the moat between creativity and effective computer-supported communication.\n\nRegi stration Category: Full Access, Enhanced Access, Trade Exhibitor, Experien ce Hall Exhibitor\n\n URL:https://asia.siggraph.org/2023/full-program?id=gp_108&sess=sess227 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
