Why are we wasting time with AI when we could be funding this?!?

Let's see if the rats want to play global thermonuclear war.

But can you run Doom on a rat? I bet you can.

I think the main problem would be the controls. I mean, you could put a tiny bridle on the rat to steer, but how do you shoot? Pull the tail? (How you avoid being bitten while pulling the rat's tail is a separate issue.)

"The rats playing Doom have become too good at slaying. We can't let them escape."

"They escaped."

It's a step up from fish playing pokemon, anyway.

Wasn't there a youtuber who made rat neurons in a petri dish play doom?
