GPT apparently has just zero conception of the visual world. I asked it to create an analog clock in processing and it did just fine

Now that App Lab is shipping, I'm going to start doing public app reviews again. I'll aim to do one a month, probably in a video format. This will be a cross between my Connect app reviews and the writeups I did on Facebook for early GearVR titles. oculus.com/blog/latest-oculu…
