How best Prof @davidchalmers42 could #Flywire & #
study #DrosophilaConsciousness in #FlyWireConnectome w #RealisticVirtualEarth? As #IntegratedInformation #IIT iterating #VirtualDrosophila?

@FlyWireNews
The fly central brain synthesizes sensory stimuli into decisions and actions. For the first time, ALL 46,944 branched and far-reaching neurons of both hemispheres of the central brain have been reconstructed and are available via FlyWire. https://join.flywire.ai

what is the state of the art in using AI systems (including but not limited to language/multimodal models) to generate interactive virtual worlds?

Since studying #consciousness as #SubjectiveExperience regarding #LargeLanguageModels, & in human's brains, wouldn't be possible with #DrosophilaConsciousness, how best to code #AIsystems to generate #InteractiveVirtualWorlds to iterate as #Drosophila #IntegratedInformation #IIT?

Coming into conversation with the paper, how could the Flywire connectome and citizen scientists' mapping of fly brains at the cellular and molecular levels be extended into, and made interoperable with, Google Street View with time slider, Maps, Earth, TensorFlowAI in 1 Realistic Virtual Earth for species and evolutionary biology and brain science and for human avatar bot electronic medical records and aging reversal genetics too, and see, for ex.:

How might we - Princeton Neuroscience Institute and OCW.MIT.EDU -centric wiki World University and School - explore new ways of publishing (crowdsourced too) fly connectome research in and from a #RealisticVirtualEarth in 3D (think Google Street View with time slider, TensorStore, Google AI etc), #TextInTheSideBar (eg

How we as end users could play with how these neuron cells all work together in different ways, and even phenotypically when appropriate - Tags incl:

Thank you!
AND questions in the Flywire Town Hall -
Saturday, April 1, 2017
Molecule: Stanford & Google's Tom Dean: "Automatically Inferring Meso-scale Models of Neural Computation", Google Brain?, Approaches to Consciousness from this?
https://scott-macleod.
Will we learn of approaches to studying Drosophila consciousness (as 'subjective experience') today by any chance?
Appreciating your ‘Nice!’ comment, Amy, as marking a beginning 3D slide with some movement of neuroscience in Philipp’s presentation, compared with all the other more static figures, diagrams, and representations.
How best to move to publishing completely in 3D with movement and over time, even on a new digital ‘book’ platform? How, Philipp (Sven, Phil, all) do you see the emergence of 3D presentations and publishing, in the open citizen science Flywire connectome project?
Thanks so much, All!

Hi FlyWire Community,
You are cordially invited to the next FlyWire Town Hall this Thursday, March 30th at 11 am US ET.
The event will begin with remarks from Mala Murthy and Sebastian Seung. Sven Dorkenwald will next debut figures from the upcoming connectome manuscript. Philipp Schlegel will present a multi-year annotation and analysis of FlyWire. Finally, Philip Shiu will share his team's fly brain simulation. We'll wrap things up with discussion and the answer to the droso trivia question posted in FlyWire Slack.
RSVP for Zoom link and to receive a reminder before the event starts: FlyWire Town Hall Spring 2023
Thank you for being a part of the FlyWire community!

More about Flywire - https://flywire.ai
Overview
Since 2019, scientists and experienced proofreaders have utilized FlyWire to proofread AI segmentation of a full fly brain (Dorkenwald et al., Zheng et al.). As of October, 2022, over 80,000 neurons have been proofread in FlyWire, including the entire central brain.
Automatically extracted presynaptic and postsynaptic tags have been applied to all putative connections in the brain (Buhmann et al.), and the dominant neurotransmitter assigned for most neurons (Eckstein et al.).
Explore networks using neuron IDs in the FlyWire Codex (FlyWire signup required). Further analysis tools are forthcoming. For programmatic analysis, see natverse (R) and CAVE (Python).
FlyWire Consortium
Community of neurobiologists, computer scientists, and proofreaders who build and curate the first whole brain connectome for Drosophila in FlyWire. Join FlyWire and contribute community data for your lab to appear.
Members adhere to a set of shared principles to join the community: FlyWire Data and Principles.
