They have completely recovered the wiring of fruit fry brains and trained models on that architecture
I know, and it’s an example frequently cited in these types of conversations by people who don’t understand that research.
is a fruit fly conscious?
Quite likely yes.
Is a little device with all th same movement and sense capability using the fruit fly con nectome conscious
It might be, I’m not sure. But because (quite similarly to humans) no one has a way to recreate the inputs from the outside world to pass to such a device, we don’t know.
Though to be fair, my original claim of “it’s not possible” to recreate inputs is probably too strong — it could be possible some day, but my best understanding is that we’d need something like a time machine that allows travel to the past, at least for repeatable tests. And as far as I’m aware, most physicists today are of the opinion that time travel to the past is not possible.
