set task

This learning stage takes up time and computing resources, but, once trained, the chip performs its set task rapidly.

At the SfN meeting, they reported on tests of algorithms they developed to stimulate the brain when a person is distracted from a set task, such as matching images of numbers or identifying emotions on faces.

The team also mapped the brain activity that occurred when a person began failing or slowing at a set task because they were forgetful or distracted, and found they were able to reverse it with stimulation.

It’s a simple system — each time you accomplish a set task in a game a little icon appears with a trademark “blip,” and, instantly, a dopamine rush envelops your brain as you get a few points.
