Opus 5.5 produces a 3D render in Cinema 4D in about two minutes

3D artists won’t like the math here. I gave Opus 5.5 about 2 minutes inside Cinema 4D and got this. Now imagine a scene you’d normally quote at $500. If AI removes even a few hours of production, the client still sees a $500 result - but your margin looks very different. That’s the real conflict. But it might destroy the economics of charging for every hour spent clicking around.
