and accepts that non-determinism is how the universe looks and that gives us our creativity and the way the universe is getting novelty, it's kind of really deeply important in assembly theory because assembly theory starts to actually give you a mechanism why you go from boring time which is basically initial conditions specify everything, to a mismatch in creative time.

And I hope we'll do experiments. I think it's really important to... I would love to do an experiment that proves that time is fundamental and the universe is generating novelty. I don't know all the features of that experiment yet, but by having these conversations openly and getting people to think about the problems in a new way...

Better people, more intelligent people with good mathematical backgrounds can say, oh, hey, I've got an idea. I would love to do an experiment that shows that the universe... I mean, universe is too big for itself going forward in time. And I really... This is why I really hate the idea of the Boltzmann brain. The Boltzmann brain makes me super...

kind of like you know everyone's having a free lunch it's like saying it's like let's break all the laws of physics so a Boltzmann brain is this idea that in a long enough universe a brain will just emerge in the universe as conscious without and that neglects the causal chain of evolution required to produce that brain and this is where the computational argument really falls down because the computationist could say I can calculate the probability of a Boltzmann brain and I can and they'll give you a probability but I can calculate the probability of a Boltzmann brain zero

Yeah, it's like when we start fooling ourselves with numbers that we can't actually measure and we can't ever conceive of, I think it doesn't give us a good explanation. And I want to explain why life is in the universe. I think life is actually a novelty miner. I mean, life basically mines novelty almost from the future and actualizes it in the present.

Yep. I think so.

Yep. I think so.

Yep. I think so.

I'm really struggling with randomness because I had a really good argument with Yasha Bark about randomness. And he said, randomness doesn't give you free will. That's insane because you'd just be random. But I think, and I think he's right at that level. But I don't think we, I don't think he is right on another level. And it's not about randomness.
