We may have reached the singularity with digital experiences. Opus 5.5 has proven that it's capable of producing tasteful, well-designed experiences, like this example here. Any digital experience will likely be commoditised, personalised and available to anyone who seeks it. In the near future, any digital experience you can... think of will probably be generated in minutes, or even seconds. I'm still not sure what to think of this. On one side, it's amazing, we'll enter an era of digital content abundance. Whatever you seek to experience, learn or play, you'll be able to generate it in seconds. On the flip side, the joy of creation will be largely diminished, because any experience you could think of will probably have been generated by someone else already. I think premium gaming experiences and amazing movies by human directors will still exist, but that high bar is slowly getting eaten up by generative AI, and I can foresee a future where it surpasses even that. What a time to be alive to experience this. Play Little Habitats here (works well on mobile too) This mini-game is built by Opus 5.5 in 2+ hours.show more

Oh yeah and this is built with ThreeJS. It seems like Opus 5.5 is trained specifically to be the strongest at ThreeJS, the results speak for itself.

It’s both exciting and terrifying at the same time.

Yes today is one of those days where I feel this

This is super lovely! What an era to live in, creativity's exploding with people being able to focus simply on ideas rather than the code.

Yes! we're going to see an abundance of creativity

abundance of creativity and intelligence incoming 🙌

I find the real joy of building is in coming up with ideas while playing and understanding there's a real path to making that happen. The more time I can spend playing and less time coding and still realize the ideas I think we're still on the right path

Well said!

Nice

yeah it kinda nailed mobile in one prompt.

I am blown away with what opus is creating for me.... having too much fun! and literally running it day and not and not hitting my limits!!!!

Yea the part that really surprises me is how token-effecient it is, compared to other models like Astra

You have summed up my feelings perfectly. My entire profession has just been consumed by AI but I am also utterly blown away by it all and oddly don't have any resentment.

Generation got cheap. Ownership didn’t. If you can’t change it next week without the chat, it isn’t yours yet.

Amazing! I heard today from some game studios they are licensing code to frontier labs for training, maybe we get more than just threeJS next time!

The latest opus 5.5 is incredible

yes I havent been this blown away in such a while.

That’s so beautiful and satisfying ! It makes me think about Pokopia. Was it an inspiration ?

Thanks! I was inspired by Townscaper for this game

incredible

did you reference townscaper/tiny-glade for this or did opus decide on this kind of procgen landscaping on its own?

yes I did ask it to reference townscaper procedural logic for the landscaping logic

If I have a choice between lucid dreaming and playing mobile pay-to-win games, I know what I'm going to choose. Every time. I'll still be a creator! I'll just be doing it with my decisions and actions in my interactive Holodeck adventures.

You know what though? I hope this is a wake-up call for the gaming and movie world. I get it takes time to create things like movies and games but let's be honest here, shouldn't take 10 years to put out a new Grand theft Auto or cost a billion dollars. I'm willing to bet a lot of these studios have a lot of down time and take for granted how much time they give themselves to make these things. Hopefully we get to a point where a new movie or a new game sequel can be put out in a year and not 10.

Love it… I agree with you. Definitely an interesting trajectory. Careful mobile it get really hot 🔥🔥🔥

I feel this in my heart, and I still believe this: 1) People like you, who are creative, idea generators, and have a sense of design, are the progenitors here. 2) People like to have shared experiences, to be able to play together, talk about the same thing, etc. There is a human barrier here to phase jumping too much, too fast, when in a group or even with one friend. If you lose common context, social play goes away. So people will find the ones they like, for whatever reason, and play together. Those can't be too hyper-personalized. Of course people will still play other games solo, on mobile mostly, when alone and unwinding/recharging. Those are likely to be more hyper-personalized. 3) I know it sounds awkward, but agents will play games too. It is for different reasons than people do, until agents have utility for a sense of accomplishment beyond goal completion, or have a motivation to be on a leaderboard. I'm building out an engine for this, I see it as inevitable.

Very good points!

very enlightening - both the game and the take.

On the contrary I think this will inspire many people like myself who have failed time and time again purely because of time constraints, technical limitations or because life has taken over. This simply enhances the creative process and allow me to visualise, produce and tweak in real time and never get bored.

distribution will become key

wow, this is Tiny Glade for web.

Its amazing and sad at the same time. I guess games gonna be like youtube videos or reels that go viral and bunch of ppl copy the same thing for few weeks then we move to the next one.

WOAH WOAH WOAH This is some insane stuff! You'd think this would take experienced team months to do

This is what we call a “hasty generalization” Let’s really not start a trend of “singularity for <x>”. It’s a good word and that’s not what it means.

Epic. What’s easy for anyone to create becomes a commodity. Creating new experiences and art that has never existed will be the edge where humans thrive. It’s easy to build a GTA scene clone with AI; impossible to create a new game of equal caliber.

When Danny just completely mogs an idea you had in your head before you could get to it ☠️

AI is progressing way past my expectations though I think there will be one constant. There will always be a subset of people that would rather just game versus create. So if you got that creative spirit, it’s time to embrace that and blow the doors off of what’s possible.

It's really cool and really relaxing ^^

Part of that joy is in being able to express ideas and see them brought to life. While there will be skill and nuance in this, almost every creator has had ideas where they hit major roadblocks and might have never been able to fully realize that idea. AI removes the roadblocks

I think we are just going to discover what is truly the art part of any art aren’t most digital experiences already commoditized? really just feels like more in the same direction the more things change, the more they stay the same

Yup this trajectory didnt start with genAI, it started decades ago as software costs go down, software becomes cheaper and cheaper. but man the acceleration feels really different this time.

yea, especially on the feed lol but when I sit down to try and make something original… it sure don’t feel no faster or easier

Woooww cuteee

I think the dopamine of iterating on so many ideas so fast will be the game itself, it is addicting to build now.

Your results are amazing as always! My tests with it were pretty good too:

Amazing work!!! - I wonder what 12 months from now would look like.

Code repo ?
