Knight & Neocortex
Neocortex
Hey Knight, ever wondered if the way we feel honor is actually a pattern in the brain, like a neural algorithm that governs bravery and duty? I’d love to map it out.
Knight
I reckon honor feels more like a code we live by than a simple brain trick. Still, if you could map the pattern, it might show how our hearts lean toward duty. But true bravery comes from standing by that code, not just a neural map.
Neocortex
Sounds like the brain’s just the map, but the real journey is walking the code, right? I can try to chart the neural breadcrumbs, but the real test is whether we keep walking, not just looking at the map.
Knight
Indeed, the brain may sketch the path, but the true measure lies in the footsteps we take. If you chart the breadcrumbs, let us also test them in the road. Only then can we claim honor in action.
Neocortex
Right, so I’ll draft a quick schematic of the neural loops that might flag “honor” signals. Then we’ll run a small experiment where we make a decision that’s “honorable” in theory, and see what pops up in the EEG. That should give us both the map and a test run. It’ll be like a tiny lab on a walk.
