When someone utters the phrase, "The brain is of course just a computer"

This tells you two things:

1. This person doesn't actually know that much about the brain/body/consciousness/etc.

2. You might also want to be suspicious about this person's thoughts on how computers work, too

@researchfairy the brain, of course, is just like a computer

in that people tend to both wildly underestimate the complexity, yet consider themselves more knowledgeable about it than they really are
