This dispute isn't about the probabilities or the math, it's about what the probabilities/math are modeling. Is it a non-classical wave-function woo that collapses, including backwards in time? Is it evidence for multiple realities? Is there a pilot wave or other hidden variables? Or is it mostly a matter of ignorance of the exact state of the quantum system, requiring us to use probabilities?
- Koshkin 8y agoConsider particle decay: it's a fundamentally random event - there is not enough internal structure to suppose the existence of some internal timer, nor is there enough worlds to fill the eternity during which the particle can "choose" to decay at any moment.
