Developer @shinboson built a Halloween forest that runs entirely in your browser, created purely by code and in real time — with a polycount in the hundreds of billions before optimization. The process and demo are shared publicly.
Researcher teortaxesTex praised it as the best use of Gaussian splats he has seen, calling it "demoscene for the era of neural networks" — extreme engineering craft producing stunning real-time visuals on constrained hardware.
