AI researcher Mariya Ivasileva had Astra build a 4D 'hard mode' version of 3D Connect4 for her website — tracking winning lines across four 3D boards, which she jokes is challenging even after years of manipulating tensors.
Play it on her site: live terminal → cd connect4. She finds it so addictive she's decided to keep adding Easter egg games to the website.
