Sabine Hossenfelder rethinks Superdeterminism and explains in very accessible terms why Superdeterminism should be taken seriously and has been unfairly characterized in the past. She says that violating statistical independence is the only way to solve the measurement problem in a way that is compatible with relativity.
- 1980phipsi 5y ago"very accessible" relative to what?
- billytetrud 5y agoRelative to like 99% of writing by phycists.
- nobodyandproud 5y agoI like her analogies. For laymen who has followed determinism vs non-determinism (I’m a fan of the latter camp; Bell never ruled out determinism), this article is on the cusp of comprehensible. There are definitely paragraphs that aren’t, but it’s still a good read. The exciting point, though, is that super determinism isn’t merely an interpretation of QM. Given time, one expects these theories to be testable.
