114 sats \ 2 replies \ @brunenzio 15 Aug \ on: Why no one can agree on what quantum physics really means science
I was part of the people interviewed, and I can say that it may be very misleading to say that we disagreed wildly. There are very subtle issues on which there is no general consensus. These issues are very important, but disagreement is expected since they relate to aspects of quantum mechanics that are not yet possible to directly process experimentally, or that do not affect physical outcomes based on our current theoretical paradigms.
In a sense, disagreement in this type of matters is what drives progress.
Wow that's cool.
Did they provide accompanying clarifications on how all the possible interpretations? I also work with some "quantum mechanics" stuff, but i would not be able to explain how all these variations differ.

They did not provide much clarification, but, if I remember correctly, there was always the option to say something like I don't know.
Personally, I had to search a little bit about the retrocausal and superdeterministic theories because I was not familiar with them. I think it's impossible to really know well all the subtleties of the various interpretation of QM.
