No? The quiz is clearly some kind of edge detection filter. The light blue "grid" is the background to let you know there are transparent pixels in the expected output. It looks like something designed with intention to me. They just forgot to put the text description.
This might not be entirely relevant since I'm not an expert in the 3d visual community but my friends launched this project and it might be something you'd be interested in
Just because Alpha go exist back in the days, go competition doesn’t go away. Just because ChatGpt exists these days, it doesn’t replace our desires of learning something more interactively.
ChatGPT can answer many things, but it seems miss the point if you use it for a website designed for learning.
Fr, what is the “other stuff” you all claims to be? Since I have heard many people who heavily use AI claimed to save time for “other stuff”, but I never heard about what is their “other stuff”.
If what you actually want to do is not really related to shader, there is a huge chance you have started your learning process in a wrong direction, which is a bit different to the definition of “being efficient”.
Does being able to solve basic computer graphics problems mean ChatGPT can solve all computer graphics problems? If not, does that mean advanced computer graphics problems fit into the bucket of "things that are worth learning?"
Because if the advanced problems are worth learning, but the basic problems are not worth learning, how are you supposed to jump straight to learning the advanced stuff while skipping the rest? You'll inevitably end up needing to learn the basics first anyway.
This mindset will be the great filter for kids these days.
Yes, LLMs are sort of competent in many, many areas, but if you refuse to learn stuff the LLM can do, you will fail miserably to spot when the LLM is incompetent.
A lot of the styling looks very similar to some default choices popular llm's make; a default which I had never seen prior to their existence.
Also the ai-generated textures make it all the more likely that the rest of site is vibe-coded.
I'm not anti-ai per se, but using the defaults does affect my (and presumably others) impression of the quality of the site
I'd rather the author spend time on what they want to make (shader quiz) instead of CSS.
I don't think they made most of the quizzes either (see link in my other reply)

Click on where it says DIFF; its not edge detection
More likely to be some kind of color space thresholding
Ex. of unvetted output : https://shaderacademy.com/challenge/ranked_1
What am i looking at there?
The expected output to the quiz does not seem like something someone would intentionally choose
I’ve been looking for something like this. The problem is, when to find the time to do it.

Cool! I pasted some of the puzzles into ChatGPT and it solved them!
I don't think that how academy works
So… what does it prove? Do you learn anything?
Just because Alpha go exist back in the days, go competition doesn’t go away. Just because ChatGpt exists these days, it doesn’t replace our desires of learning something more interactively.

ChatGPT can solve the problems for me. I can spend my time doing other things other than learning stuff it can do.

So tell me what you want to do.

This is incredible, very well done.
