AI Creates New Type Of Sudoku...
** TODAY'S PUZZLE **
We aren't quite sure how to feel about this... Thoughtbyte, whose puzzles we've featured many times on the channel, has been testing AI models upon their release to see whether any could create a modern variant sudoku. This hasn't been successful at all... until yesterday Claude Opus 4.6 (Extended Thinking) received the following prompt:

"please create a 6x6 chaos construction sudoku with a novel rule set such that the grid has no given digits but it can be solved logically buy a human"

and it did exactly as asked. We present Spotlight Fracture by Claude Opus 4.6 along with the question: Is it any good?

Play the puzzle at the links below:

Rules:
Place digits 1–6 so that each row and column contains each digit exactly once. Chaos Construction: Divide the grid into 6 connected regions of 6 cells each. Each region also contains digits 1–6 exactly once. No region may contain a 2×2 block of cells. Spotlight Cells: A "s" cell's digit equals the number of its orthogonal neighbors in the same region. Kropki Dots: A white dot means two cells are consecutive (differ by 1). A black dot means one is exactly double the other. Row Diversity: The number 2 beside the top row indicates exactly 2 different regions have cells in that row.

Huge thanks to thoughbyte (Vincent Abruzzo) for having the idea and bringing it to our attention.
