...of course a full-fledged photorealistic virtual POVghanistan with 
topography detailed down to single grains of sand, river network from 
the smallest mountain creeks to Helmand and Amu Darya, complete 
ecosystems from viruses and bacteria to cedar trees and snow leopards, 
all human buildings from black tents and yurts to Timurid mosques and 
palaces (as they were before 1978, later on of course also the 
futuristic "Afghatopia 2050" mode!), archeological sites, the entire 
traffic network (of course no railway lines in pre-1978 mode!) with 
gaily painted "lorries" and imported run-down buses, some 15 million 
POVghans of all ethnic groups and social milieus (and of course several 
ten-thousands of hippies passing through on their way to India!), each 
one with her/his own personality and biography... and than exporting the 
whole thing to X3D, making it dynamic and real-time interactive, 
implementing all Afghan languages... *rant* *rave* *hallucinate*

O.k., seriously: firstly I will continue exploring the generation of the 
most basic SDL scripts before gradually increasing the scenes' 
complexity... and even though I hope to be able to make use of Poe (or 
other, comparable AI systems) when developing POVghanistan/Khyberspace I 
would not like to have them doing all or even most of the creative work 
for me - at least with dedicated graphical AI systems like Stable 
Diffusion, my experience during the last 12 months is somewhat sobering, 
as they still produce lots of hallucinatory nonsense, at least when 
using the cost-free versions (or my prompts are not sophisticated enough 
yet)...

Nevertheless, AI-guided programming is a massive, fantastic field of 
learning which might absorb me for many years to come!

See you in Khyberspace!
