Part 4/7:
Remarkably, Purple's journey saw a turning point when its gentle hops began to show promising improvement. It was the first to cross the 40-meter mark, gradually leaving its competitors behind. Green also showed significant improvement, workshopping a shuffle aided by its three legs, while Yellow's movements were increasingly steady.
Throughout the attempts, balancing became a recurring issue, particularly for those AIs with fewer limbs. The whimsical imagery of AIs attempting to run while mimicking gymnastic maneuvers prompted laughter even as real progress was being made. For instance, Red’s attempts to leap led to humorous missteps, much to the dismay of the overseeing group.
