Researchers at the Janelia Research Campus at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Virginia, in partnership with Google, recently published a new map of the adult male fruit fly's brain. The effort, which involved hundreds of scholars, resulted in a complete map of the fly's 166,000 neurons that can be trained to complete tasks like solving a Rubik's Cube or playing poker. Internet engineers and artists have made the model complete many seemingly impossible tasks for a fruit fly, like parallel parking a car, playing Doom, and trading cryptocurrencies.
This has been seen as a quantum leap from mapping up the 174 neurons in Custard’s brain, and the 12 in Illini Offensive Coordinator Barry Lunney
