It has plenty of real world applications, the fact that you don't understand them doesn't disqualify them. The only 'intellectual bankruptcy' displayed here is yours, and please don't EVER use wikipedia as a source, it demonstrates that 1, that's your only source of information and 2, your knowledge on the subject extends only to a 30 second wiki read.
- danieltillett 10y agoCan we keep the personal attacks down - you have no idea what my understanding or background is. We can disagree civilly about the importance of this thought experiment without questioning each other's intentions and competency. As for wiki it is a convenient resource for a simplified summary of issues. You are not the only person I am addressing by writing. More importantly have you have not addressed the problem that a Predictor is immpossible in the real world. Any philosophical discussions that have at their core an impossible being are 'intellectually bankrupt'.
