TIMESTAMPS:

00:00:00 Introduction

00:03:38 Gisin's "Quantum Chance" book is a friendly introduction to QM

00:06:36 Consciousness is outside today's physics and may always be

00:07:48 Indeterminacy is necessary but not sufficient for free will

00:09:37 Free will is necessary for "rationality" to exist

00:10:40 Free will comes FIRST in the "logical order"

00:21:39 What does mathematics have to say about free will and consciousness?

00:27:18 Intuitionism vs Constructionism

00:28:22 Classical physics is NOT deterministic

00:34:27 Does he agree with Stephen Wolfram that it's computation underlying physics?

00:36:06 Time is "thick" like molasses

00:40:21 Intuitionist mathematics and law of excluded middle

00:42:57 Graham Priest's paraconsistent logic and other forms of logic

00:49:32 A new understanding of time is needed for Quantum Gravity

00:52:55 Discrete spacetime? Perhaps not

00:53:21 Philosophy of Jules Lequier

00:55:15 On Sabine Hossenfelder's views on free will

00:58:33 Superdeterminism

01:01:52 Is indeterminacy truly necessary for free will?

01:03:39 Many Worlds is nonsense

01:05:37 Should logic be the basis of mathematics?

01:10:00 Which approach to quantum gravity does Gisin favor?

01:10:17 [Stephen Robbins] Bergson?

01:11:23 [Complex Plane @kekule6] Chomsky and denial of free will by physicists is an attempt to make evidence fit a model
