**Infra team**\
\- Few enhancements regarding the network capabilities of the servers; a good ape needs to communicate

Started to experiment with stable diffusion 1.4, an artificial intelligence that creates art based on text and some other parameters to create the first concept art of the new monkey troops; got a ton of interesting results, sharing some with you.
