   I tried this with DOOM. Fable 5 did a pretty shit job. Astra made pretty crazy animated sprites and was pretty good considering.

   The fact that these are at all playable and 100x my programming skill level is pretty depressing from a certain pov. The ThreeJS dude posted ab how demotivated he was to continue his work, and while I was never a dev that did much with webgl, I commiserate.

      My hope is that this drives a new generation of hyper creative content from those who don't give up. I mean, of course it does pacman well. Pacman and its clones have been done to the death over decades. But what if we ask AI to write finnegan's wake 2?

         I’m quite optimistic about how AI tooling will raise the floor for creative work.

         I personally have been working on a Three.js project with Opus 5 and 5.5 that I never would have continued with had I needed to dive into documentation by hand.

         Seeing immediate results is incredibly motivating.

            I'm finding new things to demotivate me. It's good and quick at doing everything I ask but sometimes as soon as it comes together I realize I didn't really want this or it's just not fun. But maybe iterating quicker and finding that out sooner is still good. I don't know.
