minus-squarek0e3@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·14 hours agoWhat is an AI simulator? Is it a simulation game made using gen-AI, or a simulation game where you interact with gen-AI?
minus-squareSpicyTaintlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·12 hours agoLol, I wasn’t super clear on that. It’s a game like Water Park Simulator where you run a water park. At least some of the images are clearly generated with AI, and I’m certain they vibe coded the game as well; used an LLM to generate some or all of the code.
