Fruit fly's 166,000-neuron circuit map is being used to drive robot behavior
CurieuxExplorer · x · 2026-11-04
Scientists are turning a fruit fly's neural circuit map — roughly 166,000 neurons — into a robot controller. Instead of conventional AI training, the biological circuit structure itself drives robotic behavior, an intriguing biomimetic/neuromorphic approach to machine intelligence.
