The apparent differenxe between free will and determinism is a false dichotomy. They are the same thing, viewed from two different perspectives.
As for the simulation idea, I think you are correct. My working hypothesis is that our selves as we experience them in daily life are 3-d projections of 4-d objects and the 4-d objects are our "real" selves, as we discover after death or sometimes in life through various ways.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29192474 Good succint post. My theory is that people who don't believe in free will are quite correct-they're either simply programs within the simulation or projections from outside with a very minimal or even nonexistent consciousness connection to outside the simulation. So both could be right. Robotic human beings may be just that, and find the idea of freedom of thought or action baffling and incomprehensible. I've met people like this. Connected human beings on the other hand may find robotic behaviour and thought annoying and crazy making. I am people like this. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28760789 ^this.
