Editorial interest 88/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An interactive experiment that uses a lobster-inspired neural circuit to steer a shared browser through public Wikipedia articles.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-14 issue.

Field notes

The experiment converts a browser screenshot into three currents, feeds them into a reduced pyloric-circuit model, and uses the resulting activity to select browser actions. Its stated model has three compartments, seven inhibitory projections, eight membrane conductances per cell, and a 0.025 ms time step. The page says actions and screenshots enter a public observation log, although the extracted interface was still awaiting its first browser frame.
