I do believe we can implement this in real life too with a goat.

How would we overcome undefined goat behavior without compatible/capable/viable VRMs? Feels like we'd struggle with similar limitations regarding electrogoative force as when we experimened with ternary signaling...

With control-goats?

You mean using signal-goats ?

If AI can become sentient with the right programming, could a planet of goat gates become self-aware?
