Games Workshop announced a cautious internal policy banning AI-generated content from its Warhammer design processes, citing data governance and IP protection; the decision, described by CEO Kevin Rountree as prudent, accompanies ongoing investments in human creatives and a rise in revenue, signaling a deliberate stance against AI-assisted design despite industry-wide AI adoption.
The University of South Florida (USF) has released the first renderings of its new on-campus stadium, showcasing a design that incorporates shade, a dedicated student section, open concourses, and a large tailgating space. The renderings are conceptual and will continue to evolve as the design process progresses. USF also announced a $6 million gift from the USF Federal Credit Union to name the walkway leading into the stadium. The stadium is scheduled to open in fall 2027, with a groundbreaking ceremony planned for fall 2024.
Lumion's new version incorporates ray tracing capability into a rebuilt hybrid render engine, allowing for the creation and adjustment of accurate and realistic shadows, reflections, and refractions. The software prioritizes accessibility, speed, and stability, and provides a seamless way to be prepared for the next steps in the development of architectural visualization. Lumion's approach has always been to enable the creative process to naturally take place, rather than the availability of the latest features.
