RE: Random Philosophical Question #1

in #questions7 years ago

I would say that sophisticated technology (artificial intelligence) could certainly predict most outcomes with a great accuracy of over 80-90%, just as humans can predict outcomes with great accuracy. But, there are so many variables and we have free will. An awakened person could be so spontaneous that no human or AI could predict what they would do. Even if we were a holographic construct with a predetermined reality, which has been proposed in The Holographic Universe theory, we would have a certain amount of autonomy. So, yes and no....the future could be predicted but never at 100% accuracy in my opinion.

If we our choices are governed by the chemicals inside our brain which act according to the laws of physics, do we really have free will?
