What is understanding if not correlations of words and ideas and concepts? I totally respect Penrose but unless he has an noncomputable alternative for the brain then that’s just magic (and completely unnecessary). Now I know Penrose used to have ideas how the brain is actually a quantum computer which uses entanglement. But that is still computable.
