There's a whole branch of CompSci/AI exactly to do with this, known (sometimes) as "Bio-Inspired Systems". It is as false to say that nobody is looking to nature for inspiration as it is to say that human-level intelligence is a trivial problem.

If you can substantiate your assertion then there are people waiting to give you enormous piles of money!

No need to substantiate. Compare brain research funding over the same period of time versus AI. Who comes out ahead (pun not intended)?
