The cry of every neuroscientist! The trick is how to make an ex vivo brain simalog at all.
Currently we use the brains of other animals. It gets you somewhere. I mean, you can deal with how the heart moves the brain about, how grooming and eating move the brain, you can even get seizures and ischemic events working with the tech. But, those last few percent is where all of it matters. Kinda like viewing an eclipse: the difference between 99.99% and 100% totality is everything.
And that's kinda the problem. Figuring out all the edge cases is really hard and time consuming. And making a faux-brain simalog is probably harder than just going slowly.
