Then hugged to death.
Basically is a prompt-your-own truman show. Prompting is relatively slow and crashy, so it is hard to build continuity.
Truman is basically dragged back-and-forth between 3 or 4 separate stories at the same time. One person was essentially trying to get truman to break its own simulation by asking what it would prompt after opening the trumanworld.live website on his phone. Interspersed with this, truman kept throwing fruit on the ground and yelling I CHOOSE YOU BULBASAUR/SQUIRTLE/PIKACHU. At one point truman looked at the camera and said "STOP WITH THE POKEMON ALREADY, DIGIMON ARE THE CHAMPION". Another thread was truman constantly breaking out into a musical song. A song about bananas got mixed with the simulation breaking attempts and truman ended up singing something like "This is how I feel. Like the skin of banana, away the reality I peel (and then proceeded to pick up his phone and open the trumanworld.live site again, attempting to self-prompt).
It's chaotic and pretty fun!
In 10 years, the world will be very different, in 20 - unrecognizable.
It's like a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure dialed up to 11.
I played around with it briefly on Fal.ai generating a cartoon, but it’s more of a technical curiosity for the time being since I don’t have a Scrooge McDuck vault of gold coins.

The audience is meant to direct the show. There's a crypto token involved in paying for it. Make of that what you will.
Personally I think it's an invitation to a lawsuit. Back in the day people were running AI Spongebob on Twitch and that got killed for copyright infringement. And this isn't a cartoon, it's Jim Carrey.
It seems that the viewers pay with USDC, no? There's nothing inherently sketchy about that.
A) remove container, use raw process
B) 4096 concurrent connections is plenty, start dropping them and filtering more aggressively
C) Slap that cloudflare thingy and call it a day (same error rate, but users get told they are robots so it's their fault)
D) Just restart the server, the problem is no longer there, anyways
