The mind may not work anything like the electronic computers we're familiar with (in particular, the hardware vs software distinction may not be useful for understanding the mind, which is implemented in "wetware" that's both and neither), but that doesn't mean that what it does isn't some form of computation. Indeed, information processing === computation, and there can be little doubt that what the mind does is process information.
What if the mind instead generates information from the noisy chaos of sensations? This goes back to Kant's idea that the mind creates the phenomenal world from the manifold of sensations via categories of thought like space, time and causality.
But it all depends on how seriously we take the idea that the world is actually information (or systems computing information) which is transmitted to the brain via the senses.
