This is freakin awesome but do the creators even play chess? Playing chess from that viewing angle is unpleasant as hell. Imagine putting all your work into creating an amazing demo and then drowning it with one design decision. Edit: Ok I see that you can change the view in settings. They should make that option more visible.

I'm not good at chess, I only played as far as I needed to to verify that it supported en passant. It does.

Apparently EU is one of these regions. But what’s up with… chess?

Limiting access for EU users is an easy way to sidestep a hell of a lot of potential legal liability. It’s a fast-moving and complex regulatory environment that is focused on punishing/controlling big US businesses. Option A is to burn a pile of cash and time to keep abreast of it. Option B is simply… block the EU.

This is really neat but of course ripe with copyright abuse. It was very happy generating some Super Mario Bros variants for me. xD

I tried Halo and it was surprisingly spot on. I would buy the set it generated for me.

Would be cool if they gave us STLs to 3d print

Let's hope he is not the guy that checks the tickets for a roller coaster. They just send people from A to A using an ineficient path that burns a bunch of energy.

Nobody is out there saying that we need to bring a bunch of nuclear plants online to power our rollercoasters though.

What about the Disney park in Florida? This source claims they use 1E9Kwh per year http://large.stanford.edu/courses/2019/ph241/howell2/

A random google search claims a nuclear power plant produces 1gw, that is 9E9Kwh, so enought topower 9 of them.

How many parks do they have? Can we include Disney+? Can we include other similar parks?

Some people think Disney is useful and pay for it. Some people think AI is useful and pay for it.

Can you imagine what the kids (or any of the other lesser people) would do if they got their grubby little hands on it?

perhaps due to the risk of a profane prompt giving an undesired result to someone underage?

Pretty cool, and also pretty fucking bad. Checks all the AI boxes, I guess. I tried "a classic set inspired by Armored Core". It gave me a typical-looking Armored Core (which would be good except it was supposed to be the king), a Space Marine (which I rerolled into some small mech that's close enough), a Zoid (which it refused to budge from), a tower (which it refused to budge from), and a chess queen with purple li…

You can really confuse it with the photography terms it was trained on https://imgur.com/a/Rr9K2dV
