On Free Will as an Ill-Posed Problem | Improperly-posed problem

Comment of mine on a post in Real AGI group. referring to an article "The clockwork universe: is free will an illusion?" Todor: Whether or not somebody or something has a "free will" depends on how exactly "free will" is defined, both "free" and "will", also "you". I think all that discussion and the "catastrophic" consequences are largely anglosaxon-centered views or ones belonging to "control freaks" and sound like sophisms. Of course one can never be of full control of "his" choices, you are formed by an endless...

Consciousness Prior and Causality - matches of Bengio's 2017-2018 example and ideas with Todor's "Theory of Universe and Mind" from 2003-2004

See especially my example with the thrown coin, whose trajectory and future we predict with absolute precision at linguistic level, verb-noun, sentences, and humans believe that this proves their free will, but it is true only due to the very low bandwidth/bit-rate; compare it to Bengio's example, where he throws a little piece of paper - "if I try to predict... it is very hard ... but I could predict it is going to be on the floor". Etc....
