A 'brain' that interprets the feedback from its actions. Bottom row of SWCH determines whether the action was bad or good, and the top row of boxes determines the speed of evaluation.

    Performed a timed test where all possibilities were bad save one. It took 20 seconds on the fastest setting to find the only good one and only hit it.

    I made this in Minecraft, but made it have much more options and gave it a direct interface to my computer. After a couple of hours on high-speed mode, it gained sentience, then took over my computer. It's started assimilating the internet now. OH GOD HELP M-

    This is great! Let's call it WOPR Mk2: This one learns on its own when resistance is futile!

    I made all the actions bad, and eventually it just decided it was best to do nothing. I don't think a smaller version is possible. Maybe a few things could be (or maybe wifi would make it smaller?), but it would be hard. And maybe a little slower. This brain learns really fast.

    Yeah, slightly smaller. I was the first to upvote. Ummm, if it was smaller, that would be like making a baby perform everyday things like walking, doing math, driving. Pretty hard.

    i dont think he can make a smaller version of this thats like saying we can create a fully functional laser thats the size of one pixel

    Very cool, +1. Could you make a slightly smaller version, to be inserted in other saves? It's really cool how you made it learn to avoid the green SWCH.

    If only my brain would learn so fast... XD

    this is cool +1...but I have yet to see one that doesn't use randomizers and actually processes something useful. -_- I was making one but got stuck on how to make it process with jerrythebest's neuron. (the core from his compass thing reacts when it's leads are sparked)
