The backpacks themselves? I'm glad you asked. So, they each function on an actor model, where each potential state for each actor has its own address...

are there quintillions of states

No, actually tbh the address space is the least of my worries. At this point I'm gonna be honest, the ants just don't wanna play ball

[–] into_highest_invite@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

have you tried giving them tiny ant-sized balls

This is working much better. I've retired my dreams of creating an AGI based on the communal activities of ants, and am instead gearing up for full ownership of the IP for the first premier league ant football team.
