Rock Paper Scissors Arena Simulation

Posted by Al Sweigart in misc   

As part of an AI-generated code experiment, I had ChatGPT 5 create a Rock Paper Scissors "arena simulator" where different emojis play a game of tag. If the closest emoji is something it beats, it moves closer to it. If the closest emoji is something it loses to, it moves away from it.

This idea follows a rich tradition of "spatial rock paper scissors" simulations, such as this Julia-language "agents" framework example.
