A YouTuber named Ro0oney put a FRUIT FLY’s brain into Minecraft. Now, how did this all start? Well, Google released a fruit fly’s brain, with neural links and everything it had when it was alive, for free, so that scientists can study it. But YouTuber Ro0oney was different. He was no scientist, but he managed to:
He not only had to download it, but also had to teach it how to function, defend itself, touch, fly, taste, be hungry, feel heat, avoid dying, sense sugar, predict weather, and have memory.
He also taught them how to mate just like how they do in real life.
Now this does raise the question: Is it conscious? And the answer is… we don’t know. While it is a real life fruit fly brain, it is still Minecraft, but again, another question arises , what if it thinks Minecraft is the real world, and it discovers one day that it’s in the matrix? Can we effectively resurrect humans with this? What will they say if they discover they’re in the matrix? Will they be horrified? Amazed?
In conclusion, Ro0oney is a Minecraft YouTuber who re-created a fruit fly’s brain in Minecraft. This arouses questions such as: Is it conscious? Can we effectively resurrect humans with this? Is this ethical? These questions feel like they are better left unanswered, and make one wonder if we’re in a matrix.
