- EvanAnderson 7y agoDiscover Magazine had a very approachable article on this work: http://discovermagazine.com/1998/jun/evolvingaconscio1453 http://discovermagazine.com/1998/jun/evolvingaconscio1453
- the8472 7y agoHe asked to see some evolved circuits. The linked slides do (well, FPGA schematics), the magazine article does not.
- djmips 7y agoNo one asked for your comment. I hope it gets punished.
- EvanAnderson 7y agoWhat motivates somebody to make a comment like this, out of curiosity? Was my link to an article that some people might find interesting hurting the discussion?
- tehsauce 7y agoSuper cool! Thanks for sharing
