i survived flash, jquery, svn, soap, xml, microservices and crypto now some norwegian teenager is generating netflix-quality worlds during lunch break from a jpeg of a forest

EDIT> dont ask how I came up with this quote

Really great for visuals during a dj set at a festival or YouTube

i see this and think about Suno's playbook where this could go... survival of the fittest rules the boards where you have user-generated-dynamic video games, not just static ones where design is fixed, the design will be adaptive... based off several prompt input boxes for various things and adhoc while playing, higher tier design boards and the like, this is all going toward user-gen commercial / vanity / personal enjoyment.

Increíbles resultados

Nice, now instead of just reading slop you'll soon be able to experience slop Worlds, in 3D! /s

It's honestly impressive, on the surface. The visuals are gorgeous... but it's still empty. What makes a "World" a world is precisely it's coherency. It's not about how it looks but rather how it "works". The plants in an ecosystems are a certain way because of the available resources, all the way to forces like gravity. It doesn't just "look" like that. To echo Konrad Lorenz a fish doesn't just swim in the water, rather the fish IS an efficient representation of the water it lives within. Here in such "worlds" there is nothing happening. There is minimal superficial coherence, no logic, nothing.

The ultimate liminal spaces.
