Watching the Astra agent play RimWorld is surprisingly relaxing: making friends and trading

jxnlco shares a oddly soothing experience: letting the Astra AI agent play the colony sim RimWorld on its own. The agent makes new friends and establishes trade routes, and the whole run is relaxing to watch. It's also a nice glimpse of how agents handle long-horizon planning and social interaction in an open-ended simulation.
