Forgive me if this is covered in his argument since I haven’t read it yet, but does he discuss why this same argument wouldn’t apply to biological brains?

He thinks our biological brains get around it by using quantum computation.

Roger Penrose is a historical hero of the physics community and a current embarrassment from time to time. His ideas on things like computation and neurobiology are not worth taking seriously.

It’s unfortunate to see people like the one you’re responding to using his Nobel Laureate credentials to justify his nonsense.
