It takes years of practice to become e xpert in modeling or animation, resulting in a field full of deep experts, but one surrounded by a moat so wide it has hamstrung the broader goals o f computer graphics as a rich and accessible form of human communication.\ n\nTwo recent works from Australian researchers point toward the advent of a new generation of tools that harness artificial intelligence in a balan ced tension between expertise and creativity. 3D-GPT [ Sun et al., 2023 ] eschews the ‘diffuser’ models for a deeper and more complex tool chain, pr oviding a rich, linguistic interface to a parametric tool. CICADA [ Ibarro la et al., 2022 ] shows how drawing - a most human form of communication - can be redesigned to provide ‘space’ for both humans and artificial intel ligences to co-occupy and co-create in a manner that enhances collaboratio n. \n\nCombined and generalised, these efforts define a template for a new class of creative tools that ‘handle the boring bits’ while simultaneousl y acting as handmaidens and amplifiers of human creativity. These ‘Next To ols’ bridge the moat between creativity and effective computer-supported c ommunication.\n\nRegistration Category: Full Access, Enhanced Access, Trad e Exhibitor, Experience Hall Exhibitor URL:https://asia.siggraph.org/2023/full-program?id=gp_108&sess=sess227 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
