Grusha's lying pucks

This clip shows a world developed by Grusha Prasad as part of her work for an Artificial Intelligence course at Hampshire College. These pucks exchange information about the locations of objects in the world, but the green pucks lie and the purple pucks believe them! This is why you can see purple pucks hovering in confusion around the zapper on the right of the screen; they've been told that there's an energy-providing vent there, and while they're smart enough not to dive into the zapper (which would be fatal), they're nonetheless stumped and don't tend to live very long.
