I never realized how much creative problem-solving went into coding these old Atari games. Makes me appreciate the gameplay so much more now.  :o  :o

Quote from: Al_Nafuur on 09 Apr 2025, 11:54 AMBut what I don't like about AI is it's tendency to repeat things.

I was impressed it was aware of the Harmony/DPC+, and Andrew Davie in the bit about interlacing, but found the repetition was a bit annoying.

i'm not good at formulating texts in either german or english. That's why i've been using AI for that lately. But what I don't like about AI is it's tendency to repeat things. This can also be seen in the two chapters you have posted..

Here's a chapter on screen timing...  the examples need work, but other info seems well collated...

General Discussion / An AI writes a book!
Last post by Andrew Davie - 07 Apr 2025, 12:30 AM
I'm beta-testing a new AI. I am quite impressed by its ability to research and plan, and so as a test I asked it to write a chapter of a book about the TIA. Here's what it came up with; I am yet to proof-read it all, but an initial glance leaves me quite impressed both with the quality of writing, and the planning required to actually make this.

The prompt I wrote (including typo) was "Let's write a book on programming the Atari 2600. I want to work on chapter 1, describing the TIA chip and how it works. Please do taht."

I'm interested in feedback/comments on this.
