I appreciate the example here, but this only works when every decision has 2 outcomes with a 50/50 probability distribution (or more generally, when every decision has an even weighting between all results). I don't pretend to have a good understanding of quantum mechanics, but my impression is that this model doesn't match how quantum "decisions" actually work.
- Houshalter 11y agoIt's my understanding that that's exactly how quantum physics works. E.g. a particle has a fixed number of things it can do each moment. E.g move left or right, or whatever. It's the aggregate combination of all these possibilities that produce the probability distributions we observe. But at some low level, there's just a uniform distribution over some number of possibilities.
