The first plane didn’t emulate birds. The first AGI probably won’t be based on a retro engineering of the brain. The blue brain project is unlikely to finish reproducing the brain before DeepMind finds the right architecture.
But I agree that being able to retro engineer the brain is very valuable for alignment, this is one of the path described here, in the final post of intro-to-brain-like-agi-safety, section Reverse-engineer human social instincts.
