Two UI Breakdowns of the week

πŸ˜„
Every week, we'll dissect an application/webapp and distill it down to two UI learnings we can take away from that app. 
This week's chosen Application is Poly

Poly allows you to generate 3D design assets using AI and the keywords human beings apply. Poly simplified how users can interact with AI based prompts + visualise them side-by-side and offer options based on the text.

Breakdown #1

AI platforms are text first and visual later.
By providing a split interface, Poly simplified how users can interact with AI based prompts + visualise them side-by-side and offer options based on the text.

In this screen below, Poly does not assume that the prompt is definite and offers image options based on the text written in the "Enhance Texture" step.

See the breakdown in step 1 & step 2 of visualising a texture ‡


Breakdown #2

With AI, the image could look, "computer-generated" or too flat. However, by providing the options to simulate light, shadow, quality and more. Once a texture is created, it can be further enhanced so it match real life simulation.
