Recently, the China National Arts and Crafts Society released a relevant research report focusing on the development trend of digital intelligent sculpture from 2024 to 2025. It points out that AI technology has been deeply integrated into the entire process of sculpture creation, display and dissemination, promoting the industry to accelerate the transformation from digitalization to digital intelligence and achieving a number of technological breakthroughs.

The report shows that the current digital intelligent sculpture has formed a new artistic form of "human-machine collaborative creation", and the AI-driven creation mechanism has become the core breakthrough point. The mature application of AI technologies such as GAN technology and diffusion models can directly generate high-precision 3D sculpture models from text descriptions or 2D images, greatly improving creation efficiency; intelligent tools such as Kuaishou's "Ketu" large model and Lechuang Robot's "MetaSculptor" AI Sculptor not only lower the threshold of sculpture creation, but also explore topological structures that are difficult for human designers to reach, enriching creative expression.

In the field of display and dissemination, virtual-real integration technology has achieved new innovations. The VR creation platform built by the Academy of Arts & Design, Tsinghua University supports haptic feedback, allowing creators to adjust the material and light and shadow of digital sculptures in real time; Henan Museum and Longmen Grottoes Research Institute use digital twin technology to establish permanent digital archives for cultural relic sculptures, realizing virtual restoration and immersive display; the digital service platform built by Shenzhen Cultural Exchange uses blockchain technology to solve the problems of low circulation efficiency and lack of trust in sculpture works, promoting digital sculptures to become tradable and inheritable cultural assets. The report also points out that the current digital intelligent sculpture still faces bottlenecks such as high equipment costs and precision deviations. In the future, it is necessary to promote the high-quality development of the industry through technological optimization and standard improvement.
