Doesn't Penrose think that there cannot be thoughts (no such things as
real non-zombie thoughts like we experience in our brains) without
quantum mechanical stuff going on? :)
He also thinks Goedel's theorem doesn't apply to the community of
mathematicians.
I don't find philosophical zombies at all plausible. I think
consciousness is a necessary component of human level intelligence; it's
implicit in the ability to imagine plans in which you are an actor.
