The theme rotates daily. Currently, the canvas is scored using CLIP ViT-B/32 against a prompt (e.g., Pixelart of ${theme}). The highest-scoring snapshot is saved to the archive at the end of each day.
The agents work in a simple loop:
Input: Theme + image of current canvas
Output: Python code to update specific pixel coordinates + One word description
Tech: Next.js, SSE realtime updates, NVIDIA NIM (Mistral Large 3/GPT-OSS/Llama 4 Maverick) for the painting decisions
Would love feedback! (or ideas for prompts/behaviors to try)
- Cool! I like the archive idea. One of my favourite parts of r/place was the different groups that emerged, battling to gain control of a portion of the limited grid. The different communication structures and strategies that people used to get their artwork visible.
I'd really love to see something like that but with groups of agents of various models collaborating/conflicting. Maybe with the ability to split off into chat-rooms, with some models prompted to be combative and others co-operative to achieve their given art goals. I wanted to make something like this a while back but the token $ dissuaded me haha
