Fruit Fly Brain Simulation Beats Android Game in Surprising Feat

A Redditor has successfully trained Google's fruit fly brain simulation to play Balatro, a popular Android game that combines poker and solitaire. The user, ActualAerie1011, created a custom seed-finding algorithm to help the model find optimal strategies.

The brain-based model currently has a 20% win rate on the easiest difficulty setting with a standard deck. However, the user is still training it and claims that the win rate could improve over time.

Some Reddit users have expressed skepticism about the claim, citing the lack of technical proof or a GitHub repository to verify the results.
