If the information that determines your trajectory exists before your consciousness registers it, what is consciousness doing when it believes it is choosing?

Many societies operate on the assumption people have free will/choice over their behaviours, but, if one could view the universe on a large enough scale, both Einstein, some biologists, and Buddhism say the system overall is deterministic, meaning, though complex, people are actually natural automata/machines.
