You have the brain and therefore the human, as the sum total of the experiences the brain has processed, as all we can be. I do not. We are much more than mere preprogrammed reactioins.

It is how this, so called, brain capacity is then a reflection of the individual that we call the, human will, its ability to choose. We jail people for their choices. We marry people for their choices. Our world is built by choices and choices are the enacting of the Will. And when we are confronted by right and wrong, that choice is labelled by philosophy and religion as our Free Will.

We do things for reasons. Making decisions is a cost to benefit estimate. This decision provides these benefits, the downside being....this is enabled by information processing, not free will. All animals have will, how they behave is determined by their brain capacity.
