The fruit fly's brain could replace the blueprint every neuromorphic chip has been missing. Scientists spent 20 years mapping the entire nervous system of Drosophila melanogaster, a fruit fly, down to every single connection. The result: 166,700 nerve cells wired together through 124.2 million synapses, fully mapped, fully published.... show more

Half the blueprint is wiring. The other half is the neuron model: multi-level spiking neurons cut energy 2 to 3 times versus binary ones, and on neuromorphic data they cut inference to 1 timestep, a compression factor of 10 over prior results. arXiv 2510.24637

What math do they run on the neurons and how do they do timing on a chip? How to translate from physical fly circuit to clock-driven logic? What are the inputs and outputs?—seems like a question easy to answer for a artificial NN but not for fruit fly; they control muscles I guess @grok explain plz in detail

166,700 fruit fly neurons are walking a robot cat across a desk right now. In September 2026, Google Research and HHMI Janelia mapped every neuron and every connection in an adult male fruit fly's full nervous system, brain, optic lobes, and ventral nerve cord together, and published it in Cell. The number is staggering on its own: 166,700 neurons, roughly 125 million synapses, the most complete nervous system map of any animal ever built. Now that exact wiring is running live, simulated neuron for neuron, inside a small robotic quadruped equipped with a camera and motion sensors. Movement comes in through the sensors, the biological circuitry fires the way it always did, and the output drives the robot's legs directly. No one wrote the balance logic. No one coded the gait. The insect's own nervous system does that job, just on legs it never had. To be clear about what this is and isn't: nothing biological is alive in this loop. It's a full computational reconstruction of real neural wiring, controlling hardware instead of an insect body. The brain is real. The body is borrowed. Remarkable proof that a mapped nervous system can drive any body you give it, or a preview of something people aren't ready to think through yet?

Scientists used 200,000 human brain cells to play DOOM. The cells had never seen a computer. They learned in real time. They got better. Separately: an entire fruit fly brain, 139,000 neurons, 50 million connections, was copied into a laptop. It predicts real brain responses with 90%+ accuracy. The biological computing timeline: 2021 → neurons learn Pong 2022 → fruit fly brain fully mapped 2024 → entire fly brain simulated on a laptop 2026 → human brain cells play DOOM A GPU needs ~700W to run an LLM. The brain runs the whole show on 20W. We're spending trillions on building the next giant AI training computer but what if the solution to our energy needs was just copying the technology already running in our heads?

What makes this specific brain map such a massive leap forward? Our new connectome maps over 166,000 neurons and 125 million connections, and it extends beyond the brain to include the nerve cord, which is analogous to our spinal cord. By comparison, our 2020 hemibrain connectome project with partners, a 3D reconstruction of a portion of the female fruit fly's brain, mapped just 25,000 neurons and 20 million connections. Plus, having complete maps for both sexes is a game-changer. It finally allows researchers to pinpoint exact structural differences and study how they drive specific biological behaviors.

THE FLY BRAIN ESCAPED THE COMPUTER. I PUT IT INSIDE A PHYSICAL ROBOT. Scientists released a reconstructed map containing 166,700 neurons from a fruit fly. I connected it to a Strandbeest. The panel in the top-right shows the simulated brain running. Its neural activity is translated into motor commands that move the mechanical legs below. The catch: this is a computational model built from biological wiring. I engineered the interface connecting its outputs to the robot. First, the fly brain entered DOOM. Then it played Chrome Dino. Now it has a physical body. 166,700 neurons. 25 million connections. One nervous system walking through the real world.

FLY BRAIN PUT INSIDE PHYSICAL ROBOT. Not literally. They mapped all 166,700 real neurons from a fly's brain and rebuilt the entire wiring as a computational model. Every connection copied, nothing simplified. That simulated brain has already lived several lives. It played DOOM. It beat Chrome Dino. Each time researchers were testing whether insect-level neural wiring could handle tasks it never evolved for. Now the same model controls a physical machine, and they dropped it straight into a maze. Cardboard walls, tight turns, no map given in advance. The robot's neural activity gets translated directly into motor commands, and those commands drove it through the maze and out the other side. Researchers are clear this isn't a biological brain in a robot. It's an engineered interface between a reconstructed nervous system and a machine body. But a fly's mind just solved a physical maze. Insect cognition is running real robots today. Human-scale digital brains doing the same thing feels a lot closer now. Wild breakthrough or the first step toward something we're not ready for?

The fruit fly's brain is superior to the human brain, and GPT-6 ASTRA has proven this. And the internet went crazy. Most AI models learn by training on massive datasets, running billions of computations to acquire new skills. But researchers just demonstrated a radically different approach: No giant dataset. No traditional training. Just take the physical wiring of a biological brain and simulate it in a computer. The digital fruit fly reached ~91% behavioral accuracy using only 4 things: The complete neural connectivity map Synaptic connection counts as connection weights Excitatory vs inhibitory neuron types A simple Leaky Integrate-and-Fire model The wild part? The wiring itself may contain much more of the brain’s “code” than we thought. From tens of thousands of neurons in a fly → millions in a mouse → ~86 billion in a human. If this scales, whole-brain simulation could become one of the biggest frontiers in AI. The era of biologically inspired intelligence may have just begun

166,700 neurons from a dead fruit fly are loose in a living room, and nobody wrote a single thing they do. Scientists sliced a male fruit fly's nervous system into electron microscope images and traced every wire by hand: 166,700 neurons, 25.6 million synapses, brain and nerve cord, the whole animal, published for free. Most people read that paper, and 1 team downloaded the fly and gave it a body. The brain runs on a Mac, the fly lives in AR glasses, and the room itself became its senses, because Spectacles already map surfaces and depth and hands, so eyes turned into a 16 × 8 retina on each fly's head, distance into 12 rays against the world mesh, and smell into Gemini naming a tea cup, flowers, a water bottle while depth drops every label into 3D where the brain can reach it. A hand moving too fast became fear. They read the decisions out of the exact neurons a real fly uses, where DNa02 turns it, MDN walks it backwards, MN9 feeds and the giant fiber fires the escape. The CPU crawled, 50 ms of brain time in 238 ms, so they vibe coded a Metal GPU kernel with Claude Code and got identical spikes in 41 ms. The first builds stuttered until a Perfetto trace showed the GPU nearly idle while the main thread choked, and squashing the board text from 67 draw calls to 2 unlocked 55 to 60 fps with 2 brains running at once. In the video a fly lands on an open palm while another peels off a hand coming in fast. That dodge is in no script anywhere, and they only gave it eyes.

Scientists mapped a piece of brain the size of half a grain of rice. One-millionth the size of the human brain. It took them a year and over 1.4 million gigabytes to scan it. They found over 57,000 cells, 150 million synapses, and even some new structures they didn't know existed. Mapping the entire human brain in this level of detail would require all the data storage generated on Earth in a year + a 140-acre data center. But the human brain itself can hold up to ~2.5 million gigabytes of information - enough for ~3 million hours of HD video or 342 years of continuous viewing. It can process roughly 10 quadrillion calculations per second - enough processing power to run over 4,000 high-end gaming PCs all operating at peak ability. And it only runs on the amount of power needed for a single dim light bulb. No technology even comes close to doing what the brain can do. The more we learn about biology, the more complex it becomes. This is God's Glory on display.

Zebrafish NN It’s pretty amazing to learn that efforts to map the fruit FLY connectome (brain synapses) were successful and its amazing to see the digital fly brain successfully complete a whole series of tasks, including complex navigation of open worlds. The fruit fly is 160,000 neurons and 10^7 synapses. Teams are currently doing the same thing with a zebrafish which has a similar scale neuron count but 10x more synapses. Fly was 100TB raw data and Zebrafish is 200TB, so about 2x the raw data. For context a rodent is 70m neurons and 10^11 synapses. Rodents will come later. But this method looks like it creates totally outsized results with absolutely miniscule models. Zebrafish NN is a vertebrae connectome, it has much of the same basic structure as other vertebrae, unlike FLY connectome. We are just about used to LLMs and coding, but AI is really just beginning and there is a lot more, and a lot weirder stuff coming down the pipe. These connectomes have already shown to be incredibly resilient, you can blind their sensors and injure their outputs and they still succeed. They are incredibly compact. A whole lot of inanimate objects are going to get complete autonomy, totally offline, air gapped autonomy. They will be delivering pizzas and fighting wars. Connectomics is an opposite approach to LLMs but you can of course use LLMs to help develop connectomes. It’s amazing that you can take a biologically evolved brain, map it, produce a digital twin, and then run it at machine speed. Imagine a human brain accelerated from 100Hz neuron fires to 3,200,000,000Hz that a typical CPU runs at. That’s 30 million times faster. But would need 1-2 exabytes to map. Anyway “Zebrafish” is next.

For the first time ever, a fruit fly brain has been trained to launch a memecoin. Not "AI inspired by a brain" — the real connectome. 165,122 neurons, 10,228,000 synaptic connections, every one traced from an actual male Drosophila by electron microscopy. Janelia FlyEM + Google Research, released CC-BY. How it works: Screenshots of the live launchpad go in through 892 retinotopic hex columns into L1 and L2 — the neurons sitting directly behind a fly's photoreceptors. All 165,122 integrate. The cursor comes back out of the descending neurons a fly actually walks with: DNa02's left-right asymmetry steers, DNa01 drives forward, DNp09 clicks. The wiring is never trained. Only synaptic gains — you don't get to invent connections the fly doesn't have. Proof its eye is doing real work: in light mode it filled 0 of 3 form fields. In dark mode, 2 of 3. Its retina is a luminance map, so invert the contrast and it goes blind. And the honest split: the fly types the description and the ticker. The rig does the name, the pair and the tax.

Bookmark to practice any time you need to self regulate. The vagus nerve is a bundle of nerves that goes from the brain stem to every major organ. It regulates our autonomic nervous system. We can access vagus nerve stimulation through our ears. Using your finger pull down with medium pressure. Then do some gentle circular motions. Repeat on both sides. Notice how calm your entire body feels afterwards. How your thoughts are less racing. If you get the urge to yawn, or cry, or release your jaw— do it. This is your nervous system releasing sympathetic energy. And yes, this is why q-tips feel so good.

🚨 YOU CAN NOW RENT LIVING HUMAN BRAIN CELLS FOR $300 A WEEK — THIS IS PURE DYSTOPIA A company called Cortical Labs is selling “wetware as a service.” For just $300 a week, you can rent 800,000 living human brain cells grown from stem cells, layered onto a silicon chip, and kept alive in a life support system. An earlier version of this tech even taught itself how to play Pong. They’re calling it biological computing, using real human neurons instead of traditional silicon chips. No one is claiming these brain cells are conscious… but almost no one is asking the harder questions either. Have we just started renting human brains?

There's a fruit fly walking around right now that was never born. eon just released a video where they took a real fly's connectome — the wiring diagram of its brain — and simulated it. Dropped it into a virtual body. It started walking. Grooming. Feeding. Doing what flies do. Nobody taught it to walk. No training data, no gradient descent toward fly-like behavior. This is the opposite of how AI works. They rebuilt the mind from the inside, neuron by neuron, and behavior just... emerged. It's the first time a biological organism has been recreated not by modeling what it does, but by modeling what it is. A human brain is 6 OOM more neurons. That's a scaling problem, something we've gotten very good at solving. So what happens when we have a working copy of the human mind?

Brain under construction! 🚧 🧠 🚧 Did you know that the period from prenatal to age three is the single most consequential window in all of human development? It is here that the fundamental architecture of the brain is “wired” in ways that will serve to support (or hinder) your child’s success for decades to come. At birth, your baby’s brain comes equipped with roughly 100 billion nerve cells, virtually all they will ever have. But what these cells must develop is the ability to communicate effectively with one another. They do this by transmitting electrical impulses. And there’s no time in life when these connections (known as synapses) are firing like they are during infancy. Scientists estimate that during the earliest years of life these neural connections are being made at a rate of one million per SECOND. Pretty impressive, huh? How can you help ensure your baby’s brain is optimally wired for success? Through attentive and nurturing interactions like the ones shown here. Every word you speak, every facial expression you convey, and every loving touch is helping to create important new connections. No one can be this attentive 24 hours a day. But prioritizing time to speak, sing, laugh, and play with your baby face-to-face is an investment you’ll never regret - and one that will serve them well for years and years to come.

Brain under construction! 🚧 🧠 🚧 Did you know that the period from prenatal to age three is the single most consequential window in all of human development? It is here that the fundamental architecture of the brain is “wired” in ways that will serve to support (or hinder) your child’s success for decades to come. At birth, your baby’s brain comes equipped with roughly 100 billion nerve cells, virtually all they will ever have. But what these cells must develop is the ability to communicate effectively with one another. They do this by transmitting electrical impulses. And there’s no time in life when these connections (known as synapses) are firing like they are during infancy. Scientists estimate that during the earliest years of life these neural connections are being made at a rate of one million per SECOND. Pretty impressive, huh? How can you help ensure your baby’s brain is optimally wired for success? Through attentive and nurturing interactions like the ones shown here. Every word you speak, every facial expression you convey, and every loving touch is helping to create important new connections. No one can be this attentive 24 hours a day. But prioritizing time to speak, sing, laugh, and play with your baby face-to-face is an investment you’ll never regret - and one that will serve them well for years and years to come.

this is insane - flybrain beat elden ring I connected a fly's brain to Elden Ring, and five days later it had completed the entire main story, bosses included. GPT Astra helped me put the setup together in just a few prompts. → Game observations were encoded into sensory signals → The fly brain processed those signals into motor responses → Motor outputs triggered keyboard presses → Every resulting change fed back into the brain, starting the next cycle The strangest part was watching something built for a completely different world face Malenia through a keyboard. Code and tests are on GitHub - link in the comments.
