More, from the continuing saga of "nobody ever looks at the output" - another frontier model from a bazillion dollar company with nonsensical games as an example of how advanced they are. Featuring: Meta's [fancy new model](https://research.meta.ai/blog/muse-wonder ) imitating Overcooked, one of my favorite games.

It imitates the form of overcooked! it is not fun! it is not even really possible! there are sequences of actions, with food on a grid map, and that's enough, right!? the floor even splits in half, but unlike Overcooked where the map is cleverly designed so that disruptions force you out of the rhythm that the map otherwise implies, it's just in half and you're sort of only on one side now. ta-da! nothing is actually anywhere, and everything's hitboxes are like 5 pixels wide. the timing, the most crucial part of a time-pressure based game, are just random amounts. so what if the tomato soup expires faster than it takes to cook the soup? there are coins... for... something! anyway no methodological details, this could be $5 or $5000 worth of tokens and did i mention PERSONAL SUPERINTELLIGENCE
