What a terrible website. I went through the ridiculously convoluted process of rejecting unnecessary cookies only to be immediately told I had reached my free article limit. I’d never been to the site before.

I wasn’t on a VPN at the time but that is something I hadn’t thought of before.

I think its just what they do to people who reject their cookies.

“Neuron-powered computer chips can now be easily programmed to play a first-person shooter game, bringing biological computers a step closer to useful applications”

I think of “usefull” applications with the capabilities to play an first person shooter game.

Phony AF. The video just shows a gun firing randomly. It doesn’t even move. That’s not “playing Doom”.

played Doom “”“better”“” than a randomly firing player

It’s also telling AF that they don’t release the actual results from the experiment, explain their algorithm for “randomness”, etc. No link to the “study”. Deeply paywalled no doubt.
