Right. That leads to the whole 'brains are special and analog and quantum or something and thus can't be emulated digitally' line of thought. That line of argument is looking rather threadbare since LLMs got good. That's a different issue than decidability, though. Penrose does raise a good question as to how biological brains get so much done with so little power and rather low-frequency signals.
