Fruit fly beats advanced AI at chess in just 11 moves — and that’s just the start

AI may not be so superintelligent after all.

The lowly fruit fly just beat one of the world’s most advanced AI models at chess.

That’s just one of dozens of wild experiments that have gone viral since scientists fully mapped the neural pathways of an adult male fruit fly — whose entire brain fits on the head of a pin — and posted the data online.

The threshold-crossing technology, achieved by HHMI Janelia Research in Virginia and Google Research, catalogued all 166,000 individual neurons and 25.6 million connections in the fly’s brain and made it downloadable on Sept 3.
