Note that Penrose's answer is not the "consensus".

Also, Penrose doesn't conver if I recall correctly about modelling the quantum part too. It's just statistics after all.

So the consensus is that consciousness is computable by a Turing machine?

The consensus is that if it's not, it's not because of the reasons Penrose gives.

Is there a consensus? I haven't been able to find much else via Google search. At that level of theorizing I wouldn't expect any consensus, only original ideas from a few elite researchers.
