Pretend you're the person seeing this scene from the angle of the person who took this picture. See the colors on those boats? The various shapes and structures? The leafy trees? The dirty-looking river?
You're experiencing this scene with all its vividness (details like colors and such).
Where are the neurons in all this? Or the activity of such? If you were to pick one pixel of this scene (I don't mean the image on this screen, but the actual scene irl) and zoom downwards to the cellular level, will you eventually see any underlying neurons?
As for zombies, this above is an example of what they're lacking.
As for robots, they might experience qualia. I never said it's not possible for them.
