I just built the first complete 3D observable brain in history. GPT-6 Astra made all 166,000+ neurons observable. Attached the link to project below.

Built from this research: [

I find it amazing how Higgsfield’s questionable marketing practices continue. This post misleads users into believing that the person in question mapped the fly’s brain with GPT, Blender, and Higgsfield alone, when in fact the research was done by others: Michał Januszewski, Research Scientist, Google Research Viren Jain, Research Scientist, Google Research As pointed out by the source in the comments(conviniently), Higgsfield is a wrapper and has very little influence here, since GPT-6 Astra does all the heavy lifting. The presentation is technically correct, but it is obviously deceptive to a gullible audience.

Cool! Though not the first. MaleCNS has always been 3D visualizable in Neuroglancer. The actual first complete brain and CNS is the BANC dataset, which came out in June (Google just has better PR) and can also be visualized in 3D

Someone just posted the human anatomy model. Unfortunately, it doesn't include digging into different parts of the brain. That would be awesome.

166k neurons is a bold claim ngl

The combination of GPT-6 Astra, Blender, and Higgsfield makes this project especially compelling

My God. You can just build stuff now

Very cool visualization, but credit matters here. The 166k-neuron fly brain dataset/connectome was already reconstructed and published by the Google/Janelia/FlyWire teams. Building a new 3D interface on top of it is valuable — but it’s different from building the brain map itself

That sounds wild, but let’s look at the numbers: 166k neurons is roughly the scale of an adult fruit fly (Drosophila) connectome, whereas a human brain has about 86 billion. Also, GPT-6 Astra isn't an existing public release. Do you have a paper or repo to back up these claims?

a human brain has about 86 billion neurons 166,000 is roughly the scale of the fruit fly connectome, which took a global consortium years of work and was a genuine milestone so this is either not complete or not a brain. the render looks great either way

This level of detail is absolutely legendary! 🚀🔥

now make it think!

🔥🔥

This is so cool!

woow..interesting

This is highly impressive

166,000 neurons made observable is insane.

@grok is this an insect’s brain

Can’t be the first right? I did this same thing last year and even still I was copying the work of others

can we compare the frontal lobe of a healthy adult vs. brainrotted individual 😀

Making 166,000+ neurons observable in 3D is incredible.

This gonna be useful for medical studies

3 million dollar command

Wow, nobody cares.

Cool

You didn't build it. The computer did. And the computer built it from existing models, created by someone else, stolen from the web. This is someone else's work. You'll find you can't copyright it, because AI is derivative by fault.

#zeitgeist 🤯

Making the brain fully observable is incredible.

Neuroscience just got a user interface. I mean wow!

Good luck mapping 86 billion neurons with trillions of connections. But its a good start.

Making complex brain structures truly observable is impressive
