There's a fruit fly walking around right now that was never born.
@eonsys just released a video where they took a real fly's connectome — the wiring diagram of its brain — and simulated it. Dropped it into a virtual body. It started walking. Grooming. Feeding. Doing what flies do.
Nobody taught it to walk. No training data, no gradient descent toward fly-like behavior. This is the opposite of how AI works. They rebuilt the mind from the inside, neuron by neuron, and behavior just... emerged. It's the first time a biological organism has been recreated not by modeling what it does, but by modeling what it is.
A human brain is 6 OOM more neurons. That's a scaling problem, something we've gotten very good at solving. So what happens when we have a working copy of the human mind?
Oh hey man. We were just talking about your Flaw — the immutable thing you’re only vaguely aware of that makes you unworthy of true love. Anyway what’s new
The average salary for Gen Z is $39,416.
The average living wage salary for an individual with no kids is $48,000.
The average salary to live comfortably is $106,000.
Gen Z isn’t the problem.
Low wages and corporate greed are.
