Does it make sense to speak of "Universal Consciousness" or "Universal Intelligence"?

RE: Does it make sense to speak of "Universal Consciousness" or "Universal Intelligence"?
Anyone claiming that quantum mechanics solves the problem of consciousness is full of it. The initial, obvious problem is that quantum mechanics is already strange enough, to the point that the ACTUAL physicists involved don't even have a consensus of what quantum mechanics means. Worse, we don't understand consciousness either, so essentially they're appealing to a mystery to solve another mystery.
