GoKawiilCoders Wire Google's Fruit Fly Brain Model to Play Doom, Beat Saber, Mario 64
Following Google's release of a detailed 3D map of a male fruit fly's brain and nervous system, developers quickly began using the digital neural model to control video games. Engineers mapped sensory inputs from Doom, Beat Saber, and Super Mario 64 to the fly's simulated neurons, using dopamine-linked reinforcement signals to shape its in-game behavior. A separate female fly brain model from Princeton's Flywire project was similarly repurposed to play Minecraft.
