> It's been a few years, but I recall there being research into 100% mapping out crab or ant behavior and it was getting to a point of being quite accurate. We are nowhere near this point. There are specific, intentionally constrained behaviors in model animals such that we can monitor the activity of specific sets of neurons and make predictions (meaning anywhere from better-than-chance to perfect accuracy) of behavioral output. This is far from "mapping out behavior" for an entire organism. As for the GPP about a comprehensive look-up mechanism from all possible states of dynamics in the human brain to semantic descriptions of mental states: the problem is that trying to implement such a mechanism within the physical and thus computational constraints of our world will result, with high likelihood, in something that functions rather like a brain.
