Penrose is unique genius. His deep geometric intuition is extremely rare even among mathematicians. He uses his superior geometric intuition to teach physics in the book "Road to Reality" in a level that surpasses even Feynman.
There is common underlying assumption that the hard problem of consciousness is tied to high level cognitive or computational capabilities. I don't see the connection. The crux of being conscious is having the cognitive ability of being aware-consiouns-attentative-reflective at least tiny amount of time. If we could scientifically determine/agree what consciousness is, we should be able to make nice hyper-aware-of-blue-and-knowing-it robot and it would be relatively simple one.
