Brain emulation so humans can flourish in a world with superintelligence

A digital fruit fly brain controlling a virtual body

139,255 biological neurons. 50 million connections. Preserved, scanned, reconstructed, and emulated. In a landmark 2024 Nature paper, the model matched the biological fly’s neural responses with 91% accuracy; using nothing but connectivity and neurotransmitter identity.

Now in its digital state, it responds to light, navigates, grooms, walks, and feeds. No hand-coded behaviors. Just brain structure producing brain function.
