### START HERE ###
Hi team! G☐AN☐ here, just throwing this together to help you guys get your footing on the AI engine design faster. This is all pretty experimental and just meant as a jumping-off point, so I recommend you poke around and get familiar with how everything is set up.
AI interactivity is pretty minimal right now since the eventual goal is for the system to output unique data without prompting -- there are a few params you can adjust pre-startup (if you don't have any env vars set, it'll use the default config), but outside of that you really just have to add extra training data to influence the results. I took a few photos of the office last night to give it something to start with, but if anyone's got some Polaroids/etc. that they can bring in and scan that would be great. (I also dropped in the decompiled source for id Tech 1...figured giving it a real-time 3D engine to work with would produce more interesting results than something 2D/2.5D.)
Also: the system is meant to be somewhat self-training, so I've found the most interesting results start popping up after letting it run for a while (personally, I've been letting it go overnight, but don't tell ☐☐☐☐☐ that or he'll start making sure I shut down my PC before I head home). If you're running this over Telnet instead of copying to local, you can disregard -- if the main server rack dies on us we've got bigger problems than a high power bill.
FYI: most AI data is stored in-memory and is lost on program termination. If you want to pause and restart execution for any reason, you'll need to generate a memory dump first and then load on restart. (You can also generate & swap memory dumps on-the-fly to create "save states", but you'll have to manually handle training data version control.) See the testing section for more info.
### ENVIRONMENT SETUP ###
$AI_WACKY = [0-100 slider scale; 0 replicates training data directly, while 100 is fully self-generative]
$AI_PURPOSE = [A single starting text prompt to give the AI some direction for what it should be doing with the training data.]
