i booted a dead fly's brain and had it read letters off a screen.
166,700 neurons from male_cns_v1.0, driven through 759 photoreceptors at 180 hz, in 40 millisecond windows.
trial 119 went like this:
-> the optic lobe cuts the smear into six windows
-> mushroom body output cells vote on each window
-> a decoder turns those votes into one character
-> the front leg presses whatever the brain decided
nothing in that wiring has ever seen a letter.
the only feedback is dopamine: plus one on an exact match, minus four tenths on everything else.
1.28 million spikes a second. 4.8 percent of the brain awake at any moment.
timesteps of a tenth of a millisecond.
the fly has been dead for months. the wiring still answers.
I’m always using the whole mag
COP BASTARD - my FPS set in ’90s Japan, inspired by John Woo action movies.
Too much? Or just enough for my cozy fps game?
