inductionheads · x · 2026-11-04
Perplexity's official account showed off a fun demo: an AI built a playable 3D version of Hnefatafl, the ancient Norse strategy game, in Standard effort mode.
The AI opponent is powered by Perplexity's Decisions API — it not only plays, but reveals its planned moves and the probabilities it assigns to each choice, exposing the AI's reasoning in real time.
