Scientists just used A.I. to map a fruit fly’s brain. Here’s why it’s a ‘turning point in neuroscience

An interdisciplinary team of neuroscientists and computer scientists from schools including Cambridge and Princeton recently made a breakthrough in brain-mapping using A.I., and they told Fortune it could be the first step in a revolution in neuroscience and medicine. The team created a connectome, or a map of all neural pathways, of a fruit fly’s brain, the first whole-brain connectome created for any adult animal.
Yet another recent neuroscience research article below pointing to brain electromagnetic fields as being key to how brains work instead of the dominant old narrative that it is just a complex of nerve cell connections with anything outside neurons merely epiphenomenon. That is why I have been relating for a long time that what we are as animal creatures, are the electromagnetic fields contained within fleshly tissue substrates. That is also why what we humans are as creature intelligent entities are not the fleshly containers but rather those fields within those containers that with some advanced alien technologies could possibly be moved into replaceable non-organic containers with identical impedances making an entity essentially immortal if not physically destroyed.
Electric Fields are Pivotal in Encoding Memories

The new study in Cerebral Cortex shows that as animals played working memory games, the information about what they were remembering was coordinated across two key brain regions by the electric field that emerged from the underlying electrical activity of all participating neurons.
This also has important implications for future AI lest connections alone regardless of how complex, never allow consciousness. Once scientists understand that concept, they will be able to duplicate the multiple oscillating fields of brains within executive control functions to move ahead towards creating a singularity level AI.
