Here's an interesting video created by Nils Bakker (a 3D designer based in the Netherlands) that uses Google's Photorealistic 3D Tiles API, launched last week.
The software prompts the user for a place to visit, then creates an animated fly-through, using Unreal Engine guided by ChatGPT output.
He writes: "Using Unreal Engine 5.1, I embarked on a technical adventure when the Google Maps 3D tiles API was released. With an ambitious goal in mind, I challenged myself to complete this project within a tight one-week deadline."

I discovered this little gem from the felt.com newsletter, and thought I'd share it with the food (yes, Cider is a drink I know) bloggers in the community!
The project was created by Eric West — who has judged the British Cider Championships and Australian Cider Awards to name a few. You'll also find some Cider podcasts on the website. Enjoy!
