Quantum mind theories have been shaped by conceptional difficulties of "classical" quantum mechanics which after all is an empirical description of microscopic phenomena. So far, there has been confusion about the project due to the affinity to the quantum mind theories. Here, we hypothesize that consciousness and cognition is based on quantum computing independent of the von Neumann's observation process or simply; the brain is a quantum computer.
At first glance the relocation of von Neumann's measurement into the brain which then would result in Although quantum computing is based on quantum mechanics, a quantum brain computer departs from the ideas in quantum mind theories which are mostly based on von Neumann's measurement process that derives from the Copenhagen’s interpretation (A survey under physicists in revealed that ).
