Using Microsoft-Decision-1 (out yesterday) to fill 3D indoor levels with assets (github.com)

Microsoft recently launched LevelDez, a web-based tool that utilizes Microsoft-Decision-1 to automate the design of richly furnished 3D indoor spaces. The platform allows users to create detailed floor plans by inputting parameters, after which the AI makes informed decisions on room layout, furnishings, and decorations based on a library of about 600 hand-built assets. This automation not only streamlines the typically labor-intensive process of designing interiors but also maintains user control with a standard editor and easy undo functionality. This tool is significant for the AI/ML community as it combines generative AI with practical applications in game design and architecture, setting a new standard for efficiently creating immersive environments. Key features include a cinematic viewport with environmental effects, the ability to choose themes for different rooms, and a low-cost operational model—making LevelDez an accessible option for artists and developers. By reducing the burden of manual decisions and enhancing creativity through smart automation, LevelDez could revolutionize how virtual spaces are conceptualized and built, enabling faster prototyping and richer user experiences.
