A 1mm-long nematode worm is the world’s best understood animal and with a simple brain of only 302 nerve cells, it can produce complex behavior that current artificial intelligence (AI) systems cannot. Ramin and his team is investigating the nervous system of the C. elegans worm from a machine learning perspective, as an ideal instance of the Simplexity concept, to create simple and transparent AI agents for the control of complex tasks.
