WE did it. the runners, the viewers, the tireless volunteers and examiners of data and footage to clarify and document the discoveries and possibilities. ignoring the rest because 1 person put a bunch of it together is highly disrespectful. most of what we can and have done as humans, is often given a name but as the understanding improves, so does the name/designation of the thing because it's a collective effort. i think i've let slip the facade that this statement doesn't bother me.

What the Scattershot did here was run through cycles until it found some viable theoreticals, but even after that, it took a LOT of VERY talented people a lot of time and experimenting to figure out how to achieve it in reality.

Separating cotton seeds from cotton fibers is tedious and time consuming bullshit to do, the invention of the cotton gin means that was one less obnoxious job for people to have to do, meaning they can work a less shitty job and/or have more free time. On the flip side, someone will always need to maintain a machine, so that'll always be a job. All maintenance will need supplying too, they'll need lubricants, cleaning agents, replacement parts, special tools probably, as well as an education in how to do their job, and that supplying needs its own supplying and its own maintenance. There'll always be paying jobs for people to do, one way or another, and Artificial Intelligence is actually remarkably stupid and uncreative. AI essentially needs us at all times, it has no gut instinct or sense of judgment, you know, those things which brought us humans all the way at the top of the foodchain over millions of years, and the kind of pattern recognition which machines can engage in is hopelessly primitive next to an evolved biological brain. Fundamentally, many animals, both out in nature and domesticated ones, have a substantial intellectual advantage over AI just by the virtue of that animal's own gut instinct and pattern recognition.

Two things I think are worth mentioning: - Parsee's ability to do carpetless RTA was a bit understated. He did it several times in stage RTAs (it usually took other players a month of grinding to get it once, he was getting it 1/10 of the times or something liek that). So he had a solid chance of actually hitting it in a run, and was determined to do so in order to get a WR, as his gameplay was already borderline WR-capable, with carpetless giving him an edge over others. So I believe his determination to "destroy 120" by doing an unthinkable, excruciating trick that would make other runs rethink life is what drove Krithalith and others to really consider working harder on finding a setup for Carpetless. - The other thing are the competing methods. The default method, Orthogonal Jones, is faster but riskier, and Dezanig created a setup called Deza Jones to eliminate one of the shaky variables (the Double Jump before wallkicking), which allowed for two out of the 4 WRs that happened with carpetless since the implementation. Not to mention the "setup dictionaries", listing up all the directions possible to press with pausebuffers that Krithalith made, those were quite interesting and mindboggling, explaining how the trick is achieved by memorizing tiny visual cues might have been interesting to put in perspective how insane it is, despite its consistency.

Dude, I'm totally an outsider to all this stuff, but the collective work of the speedrunning community is amazing. It's no different from the scientific community where incremental progress is made by independent minds using different skills and tools. Would be great if there were a central repository for all the research people do on speedruns, like a peer-reviewed journal. That way people wouldn't just race to beat world records - some would race to publish a new exploit/strategy. The researchers could be the scientists, and the speedrunners could be the engineers.

No less impressive, but an important distinction is that the human brain is capable of abstraction, whereas Scattershot is not.

Thanks legend for breaking down all these strategies and make them interesting to watch even if we don't speedrun.

They pulled the carpet out from beneath us, you can say.

It's admittedly abunch of mumbo jumbo to me. But as someone who grew up with this game and plays it once a year like some sort of tradition, seeing the game so alive and relevant in todays gaming culture never fails to be heart warming.

"Considered too difficult for a human to do." Japan: "Hold my sake."

I've always been a believer in carpetless. Super hype to see it finally happen.

I heard Mario goes faster when he starts in second gear. That’s just what I heard though. It must be true. It was verified by a referee

An idea to save time is proposed. Everyone says it's impossible or not worth it. Someone brute forces it into existing and forces it into running a game. Karl makes a video on it. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. Love to see it.

That's great that you managed to include the first sub 1:17 at the end, great timing. Also Billy Mitchell is a patreon supporter :D

I watched Puncayshun’s run. The reason he calls it cringe is because carpetless, being such a massive time saver, took an otherwise really mediocre run into WR territory. A carpetless run played very well should save a minute or so, not just 1 second.

I just love the stuff. I have no idea what’s going on, but am in absolute awe of it all anyway! Go Carpetless thingy!!

Propelling humanity into the future. My grandpa would've never believed his eyes if he saw the Mario 64 120 star speedrun WR shaved with a carpetless double glitchy wall kick. Miracles do happen.

Great video, and well done to the entire community. That Scattershot tool sounds epic btw

L is real!

It's midnight right now and I've got job later, but this is a Karl video so I'm gonna watch it.

Love your breakdowns and editing.

I don't even like Mario games but these videos are so crazy interesting you can't help but love them.

mario 64 and a lot of n64 games aged poorly but the analyses are fun to watch

Mario 64 did not age poorly. People who say that typically have awful taste in games.@@LavaCreeperPeople

@@theremix54No such thing as bad taste in games since it’s entirely subjective, some people just don’t like old janky controls.

​​@@laineyw7257It's actually not though, When you play the rom hacks it makes you dive into the core of the mechanic's to the game, it's not janky I can control Mario extremley well actually. I can Control Mario in Sm64 better than any modern game that will ever come out...with Sm64 it is a skill issue like I said when you play the Rom hacks some of the levels force you to be good and really learn the physic's of the game I'll never know Carpetless cause this is legendary status but still this game is actually really good control wise you just need to have patience.

Hello you absolute legend. I’m a huge fan of yours. What advice would you give to someone trying to make a video like this?

Nothing like a KatlJobst upload at 1am when I have work in the morning

As always Karl's video is a piece of art, the scripting is on another level, being able to explain extremely hard things in a simple way, properly giving credit to who deserves it, and being respectful to the community. Well done!

Interesting note about the tech, does this have to only apply to sm64? Imagine what black magic we could get up to in ocarina of time!

I saw someone who was inspired by scattershot and decided to mess around with a similar thing for minecraft, though they haven't done anything major with it. But there's no reason it wouldn't be, it just takes a lot of work and clearly krithalith likes SM64.

I find it quite interesting how the AI can get us into a differente space of exploration when it comes to games, i've been following scattershot lately and i feel like this would be unbelievable in the past if you tell me

This has nothing to do with AI. It is an impressive piece of software tho.

Scattershot is purely brute force. There's no intelligent part, thus this is no artificial intelligence. And let's be real, let's not put great speedrunning software next to mostly gimmicks that companies put in their earnings to boost their stocks (not joking).

While playing Super Mario Bros. Wonder on Friday, I found myself thinking “I can’t wait until Karl does a speedrun video about this game.” This is the next best thing.

standee rng must be awful for 100% runs lol

i love the mass effect space map theme. thanks for playing that

This trick, so late in a run is a recipe for cheating. A good player losing several really good paced runs to carpetless might think its worth it to fake the trick for a WR.

Exciting times for the Karl jobst community!

Ai is now speed running, wow😮

I've purposely avoided all videos on this to watch yours since your videos are always so good

karinpune's reaction at the end was great
