Exactly, their experimental setup was also cool in showing you can do basic experiments with high temporal precision using a low-cost setup. Just an Arduino controller and some LEDs.

Maybe it should have just been an erratum or comment, so the conceptual flaw would permanently linked to the online version of the paper. But in any case, their Stroudian interpretation was recently refuted in a re-analysis by Kelber & Ulrich: www.researchgate.net/publication/...

Box and arrow models never made sense to me until now

Awesome work! We did some similar work in humans, finding that forgetting speed adapts to temporal contingencies in memory delays (link.springer.com/article/10.3...). I’ve wondered since then how this could be implemented, and these adaptive neural dynamics look like a very promising candidate.

I'd like to thank my collaborators (@van-rijn.org, @elkanakyurek.bsky.social , Chris Eliasmith, Aaron Voelker, Terrence Stewart) who beared with me all those years!
