The physicist Lawrence Krauss took him to task on this stuff and basically said: "Everything you just said is nonsense"
-
This guy is spewing nonsense as far as I can tell. What on earth does recursive computability have to do with free will?
-
I went mental about hearing his explanation on the subatomical level. I really need to dig into that subject.
-
So....does this explain why downs syndrome, the comatose, Alzheimer's people are not conscious??? They are merely removed from the grand consciousness that is "out there"
-
Hmmmm, he doesn't seem to provide very good objections to the computational hypothesis. But otherwise, very interesting. I'd love to know enough quantum physics to be able to tackle the subject.

@alxrdv Hm, I thought the interview was pretty well done, and regardless the interviewer, Hameroff covered almost everything for the laymen (though it did take quite a long time). Of course Hameroff didn't describe how consciousness arises from the "quantum world" because Hameroff is the neurologist- and even the mathematical physicist of the duo (Penrose) cannot fully fathom the answer to that question (which relates to fundamental aspects of space-time only describable with mathematics).

Summary - A brilliant guy discussing mind blowing topics, yet interviewed by Jim from "The Office"
-
He never answered the question. It was not the interviewer's fault. Hameroff had opportunites to say weather consciousness is drawn from outside or just inside.
-
Who is the interviewer, and what program is this from?
-
Alright, some good news for a change. Have a nice day.
Hey guys, do a google search for "2911199841702354668" for the full interview!

Every time Hameroff comes to the exciting point James jumps in with the series of unrelated questions. He even did everything to prevent Hameroff to explain the most important process – how conciseness arises from quantum world.
What a waste…
