Space Time weigh in on physics and free will. Physicists have a long history of sticking our noses where they don’t belong - and one of our favorite places to step beyond our expertise is the question ...
In the last posting, I pointed out that the free will problem is usually framed as the question of whether freedom is possible in a deterministic universe. One reply to this question (as we’ll see, it ...
Alex Garland deconstructed the Turing test with Ex Machina and tormented our psyches with a horrifying alien invasion in Annihilation. Now he's tackling free will vs. a deterministic universe in Devs.
In this video, we explore determinism and superdeterminism in quantum mechanics. The discussion begins with the question of ...
On the basis of three physical axioms, we prove that if the choice of a particular type of spin 1 experiment is not a function of the information accessible to the experimenters, then its outcome is ...
Now let's see. Jack tosses a coin, he calls it as heads or tails. It lands, and he estimates the chances were 50% that he would be right. Jack run a series of tests of the coin and his assumption ...
