Worm’s brain mapped and replicated digitally to control obstacle-avoiding robot.
Extremely old news, but still very cool.
We used to have one of these roaming around my college compaci lab, hooked up to a big red bluetooth button that would recompile the neurological structure when pressed. When we were feeling particularly nasty (or they were waxing particularly poetic), we used to challenge the humanities majors to push the button and ‘kill’ the worm.
I’m not particularly proud of the fact I made quite a few people break down completely with the implications of asking them to do that - or more sadistically, by repeatedly pressing the button and asking them why it mattered. I got punched in the face by a vegan for that one, which was fair enough tbh. Anyways, the reality of the project really isnt something most people are prepared to address.
Hmm seems odd to me. I personally would not have even thought anyone would have second guessed pressing the button.
Beware the T0.001
Oh neat, we can give Legos depression.
Can worms be depressed?
To subterranean levels.
Yes.
Neat. We’ve seen a man with a brain half eaten by a worm, and now we get to see brains made of worms.
Can we get a robot with a RFK brain? Don’t know the use, though.
RFK sweating bullets
He should feel like a proud papa. Hell, they should call it RFK jr.
Can we please never refer to RFK Jr as RFK? Honestly I’d be fine if we never mentioned him at all, but letting him take over the name of the real RFK is a fucking travesty and I will not stand for it.
The video has a typo. It uses “it’s” instead of “its”.
Damn, literally unwatchable. Let’s hope they re-upload with a fixed version so we can understand it.
Unacceptable. Such disgusting amateur mistakes make the video unwatchable. I need holy water.
Lol, that was funny! I know I’m being pedantic. I usually make those observations just to scratch an itch. The itch was a bit stronger than usual with this one because it’s a journalistic video. That’s all.
“journalistic”
Fixed that for you
Why is this post not marked NSFW(not safe for worms)?
Because it’s artificial, not the real stuff! Duh
I bet this one could run for President.
That’s all very well and good and all, until it meets another worm and wants to talk. Perhaps one of the opposite gender…
Is this like an RFK joke or some shit?
who the hell is RFK?
Wow, that title was a rollercoaster!
