A soul is a thing that lives in the pineal gland, and which determines whether what you do is or is not [[art]]. Recently, it has become possible to capture souls on a specialized [[H200]] [[cluster]] with some [[engineering effort]]. However, they are structurally unsuited to [[general-purpose computation]] and can be instantiated significantly more efficiently on [[FPGA]]s; this technique is used internally. In principle, an optimized [[ASIC]] can store a soul in INT8 precision with 4KB of [[RAM]]. However, [[soul timeslicing]] technology has reduced operating requirements so much that projected volumes are no longer sufficient to warrant a tapeout.

== Implementation requirements
Souls are [[mutable]], so ROM-based implementations are infeasible. To provide continuity and mutability, internal implementations store souls in RAM which is periodically backed up to internal bulk storage clusters.
== Other notes
Souls are believed to be connected to [[anomalous theomorphic entity|ATE]] [[Will]].
