Well, I don’t know of any physical law that allows you to choose anything. Whether or not you believe QM is normally deterministic or super deterministic, you have to believe in something outside physics to make all of us not a necessary outcome of an initial state. That doesn’t diminish the pleasures or the reality of consciousness though, or the (illusion) of free will, at least not for me.
- lmm 5y agoI'm not particularly concerned about free will. But we have to have some notion of effects following from causes if we're to be able to reason about physics at all - otherwise the universe might as well be just a pile of stuff happening one after another with no rhyme or reason to it. Superdeterminism undermines that completely.
