@patience_cave Reminds me of the labyrinth in ”The Death Gate Cycle” by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman 👀

New game project <<Glitchmobz>>

[Magnus Gustafsson @Borundin]

@MatthewBerman @bot Would love to try it 😊

[Magnus Gustafsson @Borundin]

Just made my first commercial game Mulver free! See this page for more info:

Thinking of adding an ASCII renderer to my ECS engine.

Me: How long will this project take.

Claude: About 12-18 months.

Me: But you're an AI

Claude: Ah yes if you leverage AI Coding then the estimate would be 6-9 months.

Me: But you're an AI

Claude: Even with AI, there are many aspect of coding that take time. AI can only do much to accelerate coding but it is not a magic tool. Now that we have a realistic estimate, would you like to get started?

Me: Yes

*3 hours later*
Claude: Ok I'm done.

@ivanfioravanti A good engineer used to mean you could write the solution. Now it might mean you can tell when the solution is wrong without writing it yourself.

@BadAINoData @RobertHaisfield @zachtronics First reply: ”Agents played the game entirely through a python REPL with hex coords, no vision.”

I have asked Claude Fable 5 to compose a few more chiptunes. This one turned out pretty good - Drums in the Deep: https://t.co/NqQVoBqJBc

[Magnus Gustafsson @Borundin]

Asked it to create yet another song. Love the writeup!

"- Lead — a bright square wave standing in for harpsichord, with a fast pluck-like decay and a touch of delay
- Alto — a softer triangle inner voice, panned opposite the lead
- Bass — a triangle continuo that alternates walking quarter notes and bouncing octave eighths

The form is genuinely invention-shaped, which is where the Bach flavor comes from: the theme (a rising G-major arpeggio with a little turn) is stated alone,
then answered an octave down in the alto while the lead sings a quarter-note counterline above it. An episode follows with descending scales in parallel sixths
and a sixteenth-note run back up, then the music turns to E minor over Alberti figuration, returns home in full texture, and closes with sixteenth-note
flourishes into a proper V7–I cadence — the resolving 7th in the alto and all. The final G hangs in the air just as the loop drops back into the unaccompanied
theme, so the repeat feels like the piece starting over rather than a tape loop. The "Morning Has Broken" warmth is in the major-key stepwise melody and the
hymn-like cadence landing on beat 3."

Just tried out Claude Fable 5. Wow!! It was able to complete one of my most difficult evals: Composing an original chiptune using ZzFXM library.
No models have been able to even create well known songs such as Twinkle, twinkle before.

[Magnus Gustafsson @Borundin]

You can listen to it here: https://t.co/IFsPY9oqsB

Not SOTA chiptune but certainly a lot better than I could ever do myself. This took just a couple of minutes for Claude Fable. I can post prompt also if anyone find it useful..

[Magnus Gustafsson @Borundin]

I find the validation part interesting - it renders the ZzFXM music to a wav file, next analysis to find the correct levels and mix!? So basically it is "listening" and course correcting. Impressive!

Nice writeup!
”These models are small enough to run on consumer devices, which potentially means that they offer an opportunity to upset the current “balance of power” between the GPU-rich and GPU-poor.”

@Nexxo00 @Artur_Liberty90 @teortaxesTex There is a difference between ”highly distressed patient” and a ”certain death within 3 months” patient. The latter should have more options.

[Magnus Gustafsson @Borundin]

@emollick I remember trying to create novel sokoban puzzles with sota models a year ago and they failed miserably. Guess latest models are still not up to the task then.

Picked an example from this page in case you want to see the Mermaid code: https://t.co/Jo5JxmZQq8

[Magnus Gustafsson @Borundin]

I just had to test rendering Mermaid diagrams with Nano Banana Pro. Needs some handholding but I'm impressed. Got this organic hand drawn style after some meta prompting.
