Reading about different theories of while trying to understand why it is such a “hard problem” and just had an idea. I’m sure someone has already thought of it, but here it is just in case:

We can experience multiple things and are able to perform multiple unconscious activities at the same time, but we can focus our conscious only on one thing at a time. This is why we are flipping between two different views of the Necker cube and we can’t see both versions at the same time.

Both conscious and unconscious activity affects the current of the neural network (our thoughts), but only conscious thoughts can be memorized and later recalled because they are “recorded” as sequences of events (stories).

This is totally different from computer which mainly stores and retrieves separate, out-of-context data points.
