After all, it's all just electro-chemical reactions. Our current digital computers won't be able to manage it, but quantum computing...

Sure, a computer could model the logical processes and such. I don't think that it could model e.g. the sensation of hunger, or an appreciation for Bach's music. These things aren't processes. They're experience-based.

How do you know experiences aren't process-based?
