Do we? Quantum mechanics looks like there is genuine randomness, but one interpretation of experiments testing the Bell inequalities is non-locality. It could be completely deterministic, we just don't know what determines it.
- stevenhuang 5y agoFurthermore, even granting that, one should realize that _random_ will is not _free_ will.
- phkahler 5y agoOr maybe it is. Didn't some big name physicists "prove" that if humans have free will then so do electrons? Not sure why it has to be an inherent property rather than an emergent property, but I just read the summary.
