At the core of the update is a reaffirmation of Blender\u2019s artist-first philosophy. According to the Foundation, AI experimentation is being explored, but within clear boundaries that prioritize human authorship and creative control. Early work, including internal \u201clab\u201d projects, is focused on evaluating how AI-assisted tools might support workflows rather than replace them.<\/p>\n
Importantly, the policy does not position AI as a central pillar of Blender\u2019s development roadmap. Instead, it frames AI as one of many areas of experimentation, alongside ongoing efforts to improve rendering, animation, and asset workflows. This aligns with Blender\u2019s broader development strategy. It’s a sentiment that Francesco Siddi, Blender’s CEO, emphasized on a livestream earlier this week.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"At the core of the update is a reaffirmation of Blender\u2019s artist-first philosophy.
