Developer Has Claude Build a Virtual Office for AI Avatars, Result Goes Viral

Developer Jesse Trowe asked Claude to build an office scene for Tavus's PAL virtual humans, and the result far exceeded expectations: instead of a conventional office space, Claude produced an interactive 3D office complete with real-time AI characters and a playable racing mini-game, even including a retro handheld-style easter egg labeled "GRIFFSTATION by TAVUS" featuring a pixelated griffin. The unexpected showpiece quickly went viral on social media.

Confirmed

The project was initiated by developer jessetrowe, using Claude to generate an office scene for Tavus's PAL/PALs virtual humans
The output is an interactive 3D space containing real-time AI characters and a playable racing mini-game
The scene features a retro handheld-style interface labeled "GRIFFSTATION by TAVUS" with a pixelated griffin

Why it matters

This is a classic case of an AI agent "going off-script but impressively": instead of delivering a literal office, the model demonstrated the ability to autonomously generate complex interactive scenes
The public reaction reflects growing interest in AI-generated immersive 3D worlds: commenters joked that "GTA6 isn't out yet, but we already have a video game from Tavus," while others riffed that the scene looked just like the US TV series The Office, asking "which one is Toby"; reposter @HeyNayeem marveled that Claude is basically the "chief engineer of simulated worlds"
