Maze Navigation With Jev

JUUN tested whether Jev could escape a maze and found that its performance depended on how the map was written. They then gave Jev the maze as lines of sight and named places instead of a 2D grid.

Can Jev escape a maze? Turns out it depends how you write the map. When given as a 2D grid, “wall above?” is worse than chance. “Wall to the right?” is 99.9%. Rotate the page and every side becomes 1.00. It isn’t seeing the grid. It’s reading the next character. So I gave @typesafeai’s Jev the maze as lines of sight and named places, not as a map. Notes below.

On the grid, “wall above?” performed worse than chance, while “wall to the right?” scored 99.9%. Rotating the page made every side score 1.00. The author says this suggested Jev was reading the next character rather than seeing the grid.
