What changes when links back to earlier cells get weaker?
I weakened links back to earlier cells and compared other ways of weakening links.

What the fly's eye sees · How the model's cells respond
Left, what the fly's eye sees. The picture is drawn on the eye's 721 facets, which is why it looks grainy. Where the picture comes from: a picture we made.
Right, how the model's cells respond. Each block is one group of cells of the same type. Brighter means responding harder. The blocks are a list, not a brain shape. What the blocks show: the model's answer.
REPLAY means you are watching a saved run. Nothing is running live now. The date is when the run was saved.
Left: picture shown. Right: model response at the same time. The blocks are a list of cell groups, not a brain shape.
The picture is paused.Pause stops the saved run. Play starts it again from the same moment.
The response changed, but weakening every link changed it more.
This cannot tell us what a living fly remembers or feels because it uses a computer model. The remaining ordinary explanations are listed with the measurements.
Next: Compare other groups of links with the same starting strength.
EXPLORATORY · An outside reviewer checked the numbers on this card and asked for plainer wording. The result is still exploratory.
Fly One is a computer model of the parts a fly uses to see. It is not a living fly.
