macOS app simulates fruit fly brain with real neuron simulation

A new macOS application simulates a 3D fruit fly on a user's desktop, driven by a live spiking simulation of the real FlyWire connectome. This digital fly exhibits behaviors like walking, grooming, sleeping, and fleeing from the cursor, with its actions dictated by simulated neurons and synapses. The application can detect specific agent markers like AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md, using them to create scent sources that guide the fly's movement. AI
