Training a fruit fly connectome to run Doom has got to be right up there, computing stunt-wise, with torturing sand until it starts to hallucinate then forcing it to write Donald Trump speeches.
@cstross Yikes. our new leader!
@cstross Fully expect someday to be running Doom on a neutron star
@cstross Great. They're teaching it how to camp and wait and ambush.
@cstross Sisyphus got off lightly when he only had to roll a huge boulder up a hill for all eternity. Nowadays everyone has to play Doom for all eternity. I want to know if the fruit fly connectome learnt how to quit the game.
@HollieK72 The fruit fly isn't playing doom—it's *being* the game!
@cstross
I would start to hallucinate if forced to write Trump speeches, too.
