    If you&#x27;re looking for a more impressive doom example, I put together laya-duum which uses open source micropython implementation of doom (duum) and freeware freedoom1.wad. It uses the standard jev api and will play through the first two levels to completion: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Hadlock&#x2F;laya-duum" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Hadlock&#x2F;laya-duum

      - Laya receives semantic snapshots, not the framebuffer.

      What does tjis mean? Another generative model?

        Laya is the model this uses. Like Jev, it&#x27;s blind - it can&#x27;t take an image as an input. So how can it play Doom, or Atari games, or do other visual tasks, as people have shown it to do? They write a bit of app-specific adapter code that transforms the game state into a structured piece of data (here, the &quot;semantic snapshot&quot;). And that is what these models take as input
