PIGEON EYE: A Pigeon Nervous System Looks at the Web
Credibility concern recorded. The source reference remains available for verification and correction.
A live browser-vision simulation sends web pages through a scaled pigeon brain and turns its motor activity into cursor movement.
Field notes
The project describes a scaled pigeon forebrain with 248,410 leaky integrate-and-fire units, 18,662,000 signed connections, and 52 telencephalic regions. Screenshots enter 1,248 retinotopic columns, then motor regions map neural activity to cursor steering, vertical movement, and clicks. The page says actions resembling sign-ins, purchases, or submissions are vetoed. Its sequence also claims browser interaction, evolutionary training, a signed on-chain transaction, and a reward loop, although those claims are not independently verifiable from the extract.
