You are just thinking of very simple scenarios of supervised learning. Even the simplest of other examples like playing games can be thought as decision making(or free will?). Also then there are areas where deep learning research is heading, e.g. neural turing machines. It has just arrived and does not works great, but if the concept will be successful, it can be thought as free will by all definitions.

Isn't free will a non-deterministic thing? NTM, DNC etc. are very promising but at the end they are programs runned by a Turing Machine. Are free will/consciousness computable? this is the real question IMO.

Isn't free will a non-deterministic thing?

Whoo boy not sure that's a good rabbit hole to go down. If you're unfamiliar with compatibilism I'd suggest you check it out. I think hard determinism gives the most reasonable answer here with a resounding no.

As to the question of consciousness, it is yet to be well defined, with no possiblity to test (because of eg Qualia) so by definition you'd never verify or not. At most you'd recognize what you perceive as consciousness based on how you perceive other entities which you believe have it.
