Are you not part of your brain, is it not part of you? Your neural net choice, your choice.
One can also say we're only conscious observers. Even though it is my neural net doesn't mean I ultimately decided it, because I didn't decide how the neurons in my neural net should interact. Like Alex said it's also dependant on how "I" am defined. However you defined I as my brain I assume. However, you say you are your neural net (brain) therefore it is your choice however you don't decide when you get hungry, when you feel pain, when you get the urge to pee, your reflexes, your knee jerk reactions etc but you are still your brain and those things have origins in the brain. Same can be said for your decisions, you are your neural net but the decision isn't under your control the same way your urge to pee isn't under your control.
