Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal

ANECDOTE

Random Event Generator Experiment

  • A friend of Curt Jaimungal who helped run the Princeton Parapsychology Lab has an experiment with a random event generator.
  • The generator creates ones and zeros, visualized on a graphical interface, based on random quantum events like radioactive decay.
  • Over a long time scale, the number of ones and zeros should be equal.
  • However, the experiment shows that people can influence the outcome based on their intention.
  • If someone intends for more ones to appear, they appear more often than zeros in a statistically significant way.
  • Dean Raden has collected a dataset confirming this.
