I don't, and I didn't say that. What I said if only you could read, is that what could render computationalism false is iff consciousness depends on a non-computable feature of reality whatever it is (and of course unknown to us for the moment). NP hard or complete are not a problem, because NP problem *are* computable. You just affirm that nothing in the reality is non-computable, and that consciousness is a computational process... I don't know it, I think it is the most probable... that doesn't render it true... but for it to be false, it requires some aspect of consciousness to be non-computable.
