So I thought I’d clarify something after you thought something I thought was funny, wasn’t funny. The ChatGpt prompt was: "write a javascript where a canvas 90 px high by 200 wide will display current time in big black digits and then every second convert this image on the canvas into a two-dimensional javascript array, where 0 would represent white and 1 would represent black, and log it to console" That's it. The rest was written by me. github.com/odddirector/time_of_life/commits/main/ Well and by Robert Spatz who’s written the original game of life in js. codepen.io/RBSpatz/pen/rLyNLb There is an interesting conversation to be had about heavily using AI in a dev process (I don’t think there is anything wrong with it personally, especially for fast prototyping). Could be a cool topic for a separate video.

this channel is going to blow up - you're really onto something here editing style and pacing is off the charts and perfect use of A.I assistance

Thank you so much! Feedback like this is very important to me.

Don't really know why this was recommended to me, but it was hilarious! Good job 😂

Thanks! Interesting... You mean you don't watch anything web dev related? (trying a different youtube setting with this one, hence especially interested)

I lovr that the answer is "f that" for the time-heavy approaches. I need to say that more.

Its a very good point, thanks! Still not sure if I'm saying it often enough myself, but running a YT channel with a posting schedule definitely helps.

Amazing production and ideas, loving it

Watched the whole thing and was shocked to see that this has only 300 views. Very well made video. Reminded me a bit of code bullet

And you're not alone there 😅 This thing had like 40 views for the first three days, when my other videos usually get around 2-4k. KZread is a weird game. Thank you! And thanks for the code bullet reference! I didn't know him!

I watched this yesterday and came back to comment (after watching some of your others) and you've got over a thousand extra views since then! Good - I was amazed you only had views in the hundreds for such great content. (I don't really have anything else to add apart from a little juice for the algo overlord)

Thanks! 😊 It's an interesting point actually. I'd be more tempted to call it "design". That, or "Another stupid thing Philipp has made". 😂

Did ChatGPT really do all the website's code by itself or did it give you an idea and you converted that idea into code?

Hey! So ChatGPT only wrote a script that created the running clock on the canvas and converted it to the array of zeros and ones every second. The rest was written by me: github.com/odddirector/time_of_life/commits/main/ And the original js/css game of life of course was written by Robert Spatz codepen.io/RBSpatz/pen/rLyNLb The chatgpt prompt was: "write a javascript where a canvas 90 px high by 200 wide will display current time in big black digits and then every second convert this image on the canvas into a two-dimensional javascript array, where 0 would represent white and 1 would represent black, and log it to console"

the result's zalgo-ish

"All CSS" Like you didn't just use HTML and JS when you had to XD Honestly I don't even know what "all CSS" means when people generally say it, since at least HTML would probably be required (maybe)

odd!

😅 The ai really just wrote a script where it creates the canvas element with the clock displayed on it, and then every second converts it to an image, reads each pixel, converts it to either 1 or 0 and puts it into an array. I then loop through that array and if a number is 0, make a game of life cell with the same index black (alive), if its 1 -- I make it white (dead). And my game of life is a table where a number of cells matches the number of pixels in that clock image. I explain it here in a Doc Brown style 6:04 😅
