I suspect the problem there is that the multiple paths to a new location will not yield consistent results.

Interesting. You need some local structure with global coherence. But you want it to be complex, not too regular. Like a Penrose Tiling.

Yes, infinite exploration, but inconsistent

Like a bizarro cousin of loop closure in SLAM— which is recognizing when you've found a different path to a place you've been before.

Except this time there is no underlying consistent world, so it would be up to the algorithm to use dead reckoning or some kind of coordinate system to recognize that you're approaching a place you've "been" before, and incorporate whatever you found there into the new scenes it produces.

The same as a dream

So… very boring?

Consistent inconsistency gets old very very fast.
