So, besides training a LLM to generate build instructions for lego model, they have robots to assemble these models, and they applied 3D texture on 3D generated model (what for?).

Sometimes the amount of money and energy that are spent in "recreation" projects just amazes me.

You do realize that a system like LEGO is just an extremely efficient and cheap proof of concept with a proxy material (LEGO) for later real life applications of building X from standardized components Y right?

This is interesting and seemingly quite applicable base research and we move forward by being curious.
