Re:Roger Penrose on Why Consciousness Does Not Compute

Chalmers, Nagel & McGinn arguments are that there is a fundamental explanatory gap between objective processes and subjective experience. It's not because humans are special. Many other animals might be conscious. In Chalmers case, any informationally rich stream of data could be conscious, or possibly any physical system, if one wants to go all the way with panpsychism. The issue is the hard problem, not the uniqueness or humanity.
