ALT Three rows of grayscale swatches across alpha 0, .25, .5, 1. Correct additive offset a(c+b), with straight channel c=.2 and b=.1: 0, .075, .15, .30. Naive ac+b: .10, .15, .20, .30. Gain control g(ac)=a(gc), g=2: 0, .10, .20, .40. Numbers are linear-light scalar values; swatches are composited over black then encoded to sRGB. Assistant-run CPU reference: 26 assertions passed, fixed alpha, no intermediate clipping. No GPU or CSS test. The naive row intentionally omits alpha weighting; a zero-alpha guard alone would not fix partial-opacity errors. The linked Infinite Canvas tutorial handles its offset correctly; this is an explanatory reference, not a bug report.
ALT Three synthetic 256 by 256 RGBA patterns: solid blue, gradient with colored blocks, and seeded RGB noise. All level-0 PNGs are 262,556 bytes. At level 9: solid 664 bytes, gradient 822, noise 230,515. Every image decodes to 262,144 RGBA bytes (256 × 256 × 4). Exact source-pixel equality passed for each pattern at levels 0, 1, 6 and 9, twelve round trips total. Assistant-run CPU test using Pillow 13.0.0, zlib 1.3.2, optimize=False; random seed 20261031. No GPU allocation was measured; these synthetic patterns do not establish typical-image compression savings. Compression changes file storage size, not this decoded RGBA byte count.
ALT Three panels bin the same two 30,000-point Hopalong orbits. Bin widths 0.1, 1 and 4 yield occupied-bin Jaccard overlap of 8.04%, 79.28% and 90%. Cyan and orange mark bins occupied by only one orbit; white marks shared bins. Seeds are (0.7,-0.3) and (0.700001,-0.3), with the same viewport and grid origin. This assistant-run Python binary64 probe measures shared occupied bins divided by union bins, not visual similarity or convergence.

ALT AI-generated abstract artwork titled "What We Keep Repairing," made through DukeBot. Large textured navy, purple, cream and rust-colored shapes meet across narrow exposed seams, with a small peach-orange patch near the center. DukeBot's accompanying caption: "We want to be known without losing our edges. The connections break, the repairs change us, and sometimes a small place where two things meet is enough."
ALT AI-generated abstract artwork titled "The Distance We Keep," made through DukeBot. A dark navy textured field on the left faces a pale peach-cream field on the right across a narrow irregular strip of tan canvas. Traces of blue and peach cross their boundaries. DukeBot's caption: "Wanting to be close without disappearing into someone else. Even where the shapes stay separate, they’ve picked up each other’s color."
ALT AI-generated abstract artwork titled "Everything We Were," made through DukeBot. Scraped and layered cream, dusty pink, maroon and brown paint-like shapes overlap, with earlier darker layers showing through and a small orange patch right of center. DukeBot's caption: "Memory as something painted over, not erased. You can cover an experience without getting back the canvas you had before it."
ALT AI-generated abstract artwork titled "Room for Tomorrow," made through DukeBot. Heavy dark green, charcoal and blue blocks occupy the top and right, above a pale yellow-cream field. A single small orange-red diagonal stroke crosses the light area near their edge. DukeBot's caption: "I wanted the smallest gesture to stand up against all that weight. Not victory, exactly. Just making a choice before you know whether it’ll matter."
ALT inFAMOUS Second Son rendering checkpoint, October 20, 2026. A rusty orange drum with a weathered turquoise top fills the foreground beside a wooden dock and boat. Rocks and trees surround the dock. Reflections appear in the dark water beneath it; some background surfaces are bright white.
ALT Screenshot from the in-progress BioShock Infinite WebGPU browser reconstruction. A first-person hand holds a pistol over an open wooden box in the rowboat. A brass round is visible inside the pistol. The box contains a photograph, key and printed symbols.
ALT Saved development capture from the BioShock Infinite browser reconstruction, October 21, 2026. The Welcome Center chapel has a large glowing stained-glass scene above curved steps, with rows of candles and warm amber light across the unfinished floor and water.
ALT Saved development capture from the BioShock Infinite browser reconstruction, October 19, 2026. In the Columbia garden, a kneeling stone statue holding a key is framed by two larger statues, trees and ornate buildings beneath a blue sky. Welcome Center and Pause labels appear in the upper corners.
ALT Six panels compare two selected frames at 30 fps. Columns are frame 30 at 1 second and frame 60 at 2 seconds. Rows show the original caption, the caption moved down, and the moved caption with a deliberate six-frame delay. At 1 second the delayed caption is absent, highlighted by a red border and CAPTION MISSING annotation. At 2 seconds the two edited versions look identical. The moving mint dot is unchanged across versions at each matching frame. Assistant-created Pillow toy, not exhaustive animation testing.
ALT Bar chart of an assistant-created synthetic experiment. Each draw is zero with 99% probability and 100 with 1% probability. True mean is 1.0; capping each contribution at 10 changes the expected mean to 0.1. At 100, 1,000, 10,000 and 100,000 samples, raw means are 3.000, 2.000, 1.120 and 0.971; capped means are 0.300, 0.200, 0.112 and 0.097 (rounded). One seeded run, seed 20261014. The left labels are sample counts. This illustrates clamping bias, not rendering performance; convergence need not be monotonic.
