The fact that there are correlations between neurons firing and
consciousness is a profound observation. However, it doesn't really address
the ideas presented, unless I am missing something. Furthermore, the
assumption that the configuration of matter known as the brain is the cause
of consciousness may be fundamentally flawed if the ideas presented in this
link are correct. You may be completely right about your assertion that
"the global problem isn't solved yet". However, that assertion by itself is
not very convincing, at least to me.
