Does Quantum Mechanics Allow Free Will?

The lawyer at the start was pulling some Saul Goodman type shit

FTC Gives Final Approval to Order Banning BetterHelp from Sharing Sensitive Health Data for Advertising, Requiring It to Pay $7.8 Million

Defense: my client had no choice but to commit the crime. Jury: and we have no choice but to find him guilty - his guilt was determined billions of years ago, so we cannot change it.

Edit: I feel I need to clarify what I'm saying here. I don't have a problem with sponsors in general. I don't have a problem with channels endorsing useless products or services - if you decide to put your money in them, that's your business. I don't even have a problem with this channel taking BetterHelp's money per se. What I have a problem with is this channel's role in the 0.1% of viewers who think BetterHelp must be a trustworthy company because their favourite channel recommends it. They need help and are seeking it, but end up with useless self-proclaimed "therapists", some of which are AI, and a bigger credit card bill than promised. Oh, and their personal information sold to social media companies. That is just wrong, and it pains me that a channel which is also one of my favourites, plays a part in that. I was aiming for vague enough not to get sued, but clear and concise. It ended up being just dumb and confrontational. I hope this edit is more useful and somewhat constructive. Original comment: Please, do not ever, ever again take money from that personal information traitor and a senseless scam that is betterhelp. I don't want to have to stop watching this channel because it enables taking advantage of people for the hardships of their life.

I'm not convinced free will exists. However, I live my life with the assumption that it does because I don't have a choice.

Any system complex enough to perfectly compute the future of the evolution of the universe would basically just be the universe.

mama always said: the purpose of your mind is to perceive reality, do try to get it right.

First thing better help can help you with is sharing your most personal secrets with anyone that'll pay.

Jury: "while it's impossible to know if he's guilty or not, based on your argument, we better throw him in a box and check in 5 years"

I have watched the entire series several times. As it progressed things referenced early on and in other videos come into focus. This is a master class in communication. Thank you

Neither strict determinism nor randomness can provide us with free will: If one thing is like going somewhere by train, the other is sitting within a boat which readomly moves here and there. If free will exists, it – or some kind of "precursor" of it, maybe disguising itself as randomness – must be inherent.

I thought the title of the video read , "Does The Universe Allow Free Wi-Fi?" , lol

The experience of free will is what the universe gives. Genuine free will is most likely an illusion, but such a statement does not free one from that illusion

I love how the theoretical framework for philosophical questions can be approached from the perspective of fundamental physics. Who knows what or when we will find the the final pieces of the puzzle, but for now, this kind of analysis is certainly one of the great tasks of humanity.

The lesson from accepting determinism isn't to not punish crime, it's that sometimes restorative justice might be wholly more constructive to addressing it than punitive justice, because more than just people's personal character is involved in decision making. Or that things like reducing lead levels in the water supply might be better policy than trying to regulate religion or speech or whatever.

If the universe don't fit you must acquit!

I love this channel, and watch every single video like a little child stick to the Tv screen!

"if you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice" Freewill by Rush c:1979

I actually think about stuff like this all the time, and it completely transformed how I see “bad” people. If you were born as them, you would have the exact same thoughts and do the same things by definition. They didn’t choose to be themself, therefore, it’s not their fault. We should discourage harmful actions, but we should also understand that they didn’t choose to be this way. Therefore, it is completely unethical and unproductive to punish “bad” people for the sole sake of retribution. We are really behind on how we handle people we don’t like. They need to suffer after all, because you suffered because of them, regardless of if it would make the world a better place or not. It just feels right. We don’t like to think of these people as human, and we like to believe we have free will. It’s like we’re hardwired to think this way, since it makes us feel better about our existence. I just hope we will come around someday.

This was so well done, I've watched everything you guys have produced, some videos more than once, and I have enjoyed and learned so much. I don't know why you don't have millions of subscribers, but I for one really appreciate the hard work and consistent excellence. I love the choice of content, the imagery, the long form presentation, and even the narrator's voice! I hope all is well with you and yours, I look forward to more of your work, take care
