Presenting ShaderGPT™, an AI experiment. Which LLM is best at coding visual GLSL fragment shaders? OpenAI vs. DeepSeek vs. Mistral vs. Anthropic. Write prompts and explore examples. Built with AI SDK by Vercel.

Here is a post on why and how we made it, what we learned, etc - for those who want to dive deeper:

Coral AI is the most powerful AI for documents. See the difference yourself:

@vercel I’m guessing Claude is gonna be the best at shaders

@vercel yes, we agree with that right now, we shared more thoughts here:

@vercel Brilliant one guys, next create one for vertex shaders, so we can bend and twist textures and planes like sorcery🙏🏾

@vercel great idea, we will consider!

@vercel Incredible, and goes to my stack immediately lol Imagine generating GLSL code here and pasting it to @hiunicornstudio as a custom shader. Complete no-code workflow 🙀

@vercel Fascinating to compare AI models through shader coding. Wonder which one creates the most mesmerizing visual effects?

@vercel yes, we're still not 100% ourselves, as it varies between tasks, but Claude is a strong candidate.

@vercel Amazing

@vercel 🙌

@vercel Neat! It's really interesting to see how these things are put together 🪄

@vercel yeah, we've been playing a lot with it :)

@vercel Woah I experienced AI shader inception. This is super dope! 🔥

@vercel nice to hear!

@vercel This is amazing! Thanks for making this.

@vercel Killer tool!

@vercel Glad to hear you like it!

@vercel You nailed it guys, very inspiring 🔥

@vercel It looks amazing, I'm trying it today :) Will let you know

@vercel yes, pls follow up, and let us know :)

@vercel I'm getting errors. Is it just me?

@vercel That's a cool experiment! Shader coding with AI is such an interesting space. If you're exploring AI for coding, you might wanna check out @QodoAI. Qodo Gen helps with test generation and general coding right in the IDE—super handy for making sure your code runs as expected.

@vercel BS. Can’t even generate simple shader for Neutral 3D LUT.

@vercel Web needs more shaders ("classic duck hunt game"claude 3.7)

@vercel Is usage of Fractal Brownian Motion written in initial prompt?

@vercel Nice! Shaders are not designed for human brain 😂

@vercel Hell yeah, im gonna use this in my next design project 👊

@vercel very nice

@vercel This is crazy

@vercel Every LLM I’ve tried has been atrocious at making shaders

@vercel DeepSeek r1 gives better code in my case.

@vercel The potential real-world applications for AI-generated GLSL shaders are fascinating. How might this experiment impact visual effects across industries?

@vercel Woahhhh

@vercel Cool!!

@vercel Does this work well for Metal shaders?

@vercel amazing stuff
