Is it? The code in the repository is MIT, but the models are downloaded from Azure: https://github.com/openai/shap-e/blob/main/shap_e/models/dow... The code license in such cases would not extend to binary blobs downloaded from the Internet. And the code is basically useless without the blob.

> How many more steps have to occur between these models and me printing them? Shouldn't be too hard. Based on the code of the examples it seems it can output polygonal meshes in ply format. Either your slicer natively supports that, or you can use something (for example blender) to convert the ply to a format your slicer supports. What can go wrong if the model "looks okay" but have some subtle geometric issue (like if it has a missing face, which makes it non-manifold or non-watertight) Nowadays many slicers have tools to heal such problems, but there can be dragons that way. I looked for an example object in their repo and found this one: https://github.com/openai/shap-e/blob/main/shap_e/examples/e... If that is representative it is a very nice clean geometry. I have sliced it with prusa slicer no problem and I could be printing it wit

From the jupyter notebook in the repo [0], the output is in .ply or polygon file format which is used by some 3D scanners and can be converted to STL supported by most 3D printers. 0-https://github.com/openai/shap-e/blob/main/shap_e/examples/s...
