Someone that knows quantum physics but almost no computing looks at a phone. They don’t know how it works inside. They are uncertain about how apps result from material phenomenon. This is just normal uncertainty over a set of hypothesis. One of those hypotheses is the actual answer, many others will look like alternate choices of circuit board layout or programming language. They still need to find out how the phone works, but that is because they have many hypothesis that involve atoms. They have no reason to doubt that the phone is made of atoms.
I don’t know how your brain works either, but I am equally sure it is made of (atoms, quantum waves, strings or whatever). I apply the same to my own brain.
In the materialist paradigm I can understand Newtonian gravity as at least an approximation of whatever the real rules are. How does a solipsist consider it?
