After seeing this installation[1] by rootkid, I knew I had to built an online version of it.

It's basically just a small language model, running on a tiny hetzner server in an infinite loop. The model knows about this and is also aware of the nth cycle it is currently in, and is told to ponder its existence.

This was also a nice project for checking out Server-Sent Events, which are surprisingly powerful.
