Ain't
This is a puzzle with the rules that was recently seen made by an AI, and me together with Calvinball, MantaRay, arctan, mellowrobinson and many other people from Sudoku Stream Team helped and supported us to create this puzzle as what a human would actually do. Hopefully you enjoy it.
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 row indicates exactly 2 different regions have cells in that row.

Lösungscode: Row 5 with dashes between border of regions. For example 12-345-6.

Well done SST!

It was a really interesting contrast to kropki dot puzzles that use the full 1-9 range with known region boundaries, and I enjoyed figuring out the possibilities for spotlight and regions with the row diversity limitation.

Remarkable puzzle, easily the best 6x6 I’ve done.

That is in the top 5 of 6x6 puzzles ever among 1500 puzzle solves. Awesome setting thx.

Human skill still prevails !
Seeing the thought process and collective effort that went behind setting this was also very instructive !
Ps : love tasty 6x6 CC's

Very fun puzzle (unlike the original slop that CtC for some baffling reason decided to feature). I hope that CtC solves this to show how shit the generative AI puzzle was.

Well I could do the AI one maybe this one will be above my above ability.
Was hoping it would be more inline with the ideas and styling the AI thought up because I love a negative constraint.
Backround if anyone doesn't know AI was tasked with creating a sudoku puzzle it decided a "beautiful interactive" puzzle was in order with a negative constraint and star notation and even programmed an interactive solver to play and answer check.
The Cracking the Cryptic Youtube channel then took the puzzle changed the rules to remove the negative constraint. Changed the styling making it more difficult to solve with egregious s's written all over it and omitted the ability to check your solution which novice solvers like myself use.
