An "Enchanced Circuits" Idea

So, I was thinking—what if Rec Room had way more chips to make game creation easier? Right now, CV2 is powerful, but there are still times when making something simple takes way too many steps. My idea is to expand the CV2 system with a ton of new chips and maybe even an AI-powered assistant that helps with circuit building.

For example, imagine a chip that acts like a “ChatGPT but for CV2,” where you type what you need—like “make an enemy AI that follows the player”—and it generates the circuits for you. It could also suggest optimizations for existing circuits, making everything more efficient.

This wouldn’t replace manual circuit work, but it would speed things up a lot, especially for newer creators. It could also introduce smarter debugging tools or better ways to visualize circuit performance.

Wouldn’t that just make Circuteers useless?

Yes and no
it would have some limits
it would do 30% of the work while the player has to do 70% of the work

the only thing i agree with in this post is i think it would be kinda cool is the optimization thing but i completely disagree with everything else

They could call it something like Maker AI

That’s a great name

That is so fortune teller :broken_heart:

Can’t remember if this was made before or after the reveal of Maker AI, but something to note, they completely misled everyone on Maker AI’s heavily implied ability to make circuits for you. It just is able to spawn in manually pre-made inventions, it cannot understand circuits. BVR made a video on this where he explained that it is pretty unlikely for any store invention of a circuit to work exactly how you want it to without needing tweaking, and how it is near impossible for different circuits inventions by different creators to cooperate with each efficiently and/or without conflict.

I think it would be nice if it could teach circuits, as in the concepts you may want to understand but find too complicated or vague? Like, imagine you’re wondering “i want to get the number of degrees i twist my hand around this axis, but the quaternion math is really confusing and i don’t know where to start” and the AI could pull information about detecting rotation amount around axes and figure out how to convert that info into CV2 chips! It would be handy for those topics where the information online already expects you to know this entirely different well of information or is vague or speaks in terms you don’t understand like a programming language you don’t use or something. It could be super helpful, but i can totally also see it being used to further empower slop creators by making it easier for them to appear talented when really an AI is doing all the heavy lifting for them. There’s a healthy amount that it is perfectly respectable to use, but we cannot ever expect the average player to keep within that respectable amount. It’s tough. It’s unfortunate.
