The question of whether free will exists comes down to whether a system can be consistently described as regulating based on its own models, including the regulation of the model creation itself.

I agree with the inherent disagreement between non-determinism and free will. However, from a computational approach to explaining the human psyche, I do not see how a deterministic program could implement free will. It rather seems like our perception of choice is an illusion.

There is a choice: it is the process that weights preferences and expected outcomes until a decision is being made. Our mind also creates a representation of that process (which does not have to be faithful).
