Even if scanning leads to a working simulation of a brain, there will have to be several more years before sufficiently powerful hardware is available that could run it at "brainspeed".
Indeed. More interesting perhaps, is that destructive scanning would become viable long before non-disruptive scanning. Also note: a slow-running simulation which turns out to be in agony doesn't have to suffer for much subjective time. Presuming the 'owners' care about that.
But I'd really like to see the simulation then. That could answer the "soul" question forever :)
