Details
The experiment allows Twitch viewers to submit ideas (prompts) in chat, which are then interpreted by an LLM (Claude Opus 4.5) to generate and update a single HTML file (HTML/CSS/JS) in real-time. There are two modes: Anarchy, where ideas are batched and applied together, and Democracy, where ideas are voted on before execution. All changes are automatically committed to GitHub. The system is sandboxed and may be unstable, but the creator plans to iterate on it to improve stability and explore new democratic mechanisms.
