Fly Brain Collector

bth0mp

Listings get a plain-text score, the score sets how hard the simulated sugar-tasting neurons are stimulated, roughly 127,000 neurons of the Shiu et al. FlyWire model run for one simulated second, and the firing rate of MN9, the proboscis motor neuron, decides how much the fly wants the item. A budget is re-solved after every judgement, and nothing is ever bought or bid on. The honest part is a labelled section: the fly has no idea what a collectible is, all the judgement lives in scoring rules a person wrote, and the connectome here is acting as a simple transfer function.
