I learned of a cool erosion noise function from 2023 (link in reply) and wondered how it would feel in my game. First impressions:

1) It's fast for erosion, but quite slow for a noise function.
2) It looks nice from afar but doesn't make environments more satisfying to explore.

It does not always result in working code, but at least you can quickly get something to improve on.
This uses ChatGPT 4o, and there is a hidden parameter where you should put your OpenAI API key.
(I put in a default key with 20€, so with some luck you can test it without one:)

I first tried with a local Deepseek-r1:32b, but kept getting errors with 85% of even the simplest wishes. GPT-4o makes valid code maybe a bit over 50% of the time. With a niche API like HOM these model just keep hallucinating. Would need to finetune with Houdini documentation and examples?

Don't worry, our jobs are safe, this can't really do anything of actual use.
