Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal · David Wallace: Why Many Worlds Is the Only Consistent Interpretation · 29 May 2025 podcast

uh collect scientific data.

Um but we can still ask what's the correct strategy for those

Systems to adopt.

Yeah, so I want to claim these are constitutive assumptions about what

agency is and what rationality is, um and and therefore indirectly their constituent assumptions about what

Sciences.

And those assumptions are neutral in themselves, they're neutral to the many Wales theory.

Um uh

So it's true that if you want to establish that

probability in the Everett interpretation, or the models quite amplitude in the Everett interpretation plays the role the probability plays in scientific inference, then you're gonna have to say something in the setup of the problem about what you take scientific inference to be, and not just something about what the dynamics of quantum mechanics are.

But that's not specific to Everett.

I mean, if you wanted to establish that some formal measure in any theory

played the role the probability plays in the scientific method, you need to say something about scientific inference, as well as something about that theory.

If you don't feel any need to connect, you

And

something that has the formal properties of probability to scientific inference, then congratulations, you don't need to say anything about scientific inference and

ever by itself will be fine for you.

But if you do think it's part of your job to connect
