Is Consciousness an Illusion?
This still seems not to [try to] answer the really hard question - how does a bunch of quarks and electrons go from mindlessly following the laws of physics to saying »Look, we are a bunch of quarks and electrons!«? I admittedly found it somewhat hard at times to follow the argument of the article, but in the end it seems to argue that consciousness is just one of many models embedded in our brain, more specifically a metamodel of the other models. But, assuming that I did not misunderstand the argument, that seems not to help much to explain how the laws of physics manage to reflect on themselves and bring the the awareness of existence into existence.
