Ok that's VERY impressive, now give me the possibility of exporting it as an .stl to 3D print and then we'll be talking. Just imagine drawing something in 2D and be able to print it as a fully 3D object, it gives me chills just by thinking about it.

This is here now. It's possible to set up a flow in a node based ai tool to go from text prompt to stl in a single shot.

They current results using open license models aren't incredible in their fidelity, but it's literally here today.

Edit to add - the meshes it generates aren't the cleanest, so consider a follow up with something like:

https://www.meshlab.net/

Note - if 3d printing isn't your jam, you can also do things like generate game assets. Ex - take the output mesh and throw it into something like https://www.mixamo.com/#/ for auto rigging.

Again - the open source tooling is a bit fiddly, but it's workable (you'll need to be familiar with python packaging to get the 3d pack up and running in comfyui). Quality of the meshes will vary a lot based on input.

You can also find (somewhat) up to date info on new models and papers here: https://github.com/ActiveVisionLab/Awesome-LLM-3D?tab=readme...

If you don't want to run it yourself - there are also several commercial offerings right now:
