Roger Penrose extended the argument to claim that human consciousness involves non-computable physical processes.\n\nThe argument states that a consistent formal system cannot prove its own consistency.

R. Lucas applied Gödel's incompleteness theorems to argue that no machine can fully replicate human mathematical insight.
