The Meta Problem of Consciousness

There is this very interesting view that consciousness itself is an introspective illusion. The brain just has these introspective models of itself where it over simplifies everything and represents itself as having to special properties. And then you can go all the way with what people call illusionism and say, in fact, consciousness itself is not real. We might be able to explain that bit of behavior as one of the easy problems consciousness. So maybe ther'll be some computational model that explains why we're puzzled by consciousness.
