Not the holy grail yet, but pretty cool! I see these usable not as main assets, but as something you would add as a low effort embellishment to add complexity to the main scene. The fact they maintain profile makes them usable for situations where mere 2d billboard impostor (i.e the original image always oriented towards the camera) would not cut it. You can totally create a figure image (Midjourney|Bing|Dalle3) and drag and drop it to the image input and get a surprising good 3d presentation that is not a highly detailed model, but something you could very well put to a shelf in a 3d scene as an embellishment where the camera never sees the back of it, and the model is never at the center of attention.
