Does free will exist? Neil deGrasse Tyson and Chuck Nice sit down with astrophysicist Charles Liu sit down to discuss the existence of free will and whether physics allows for choice in our lives. We explore cause and effect: how does uncertainty and chaos in the universe factor into free will? How important is the illusion of free will to society? What does a society that acknowledges a lack of free will look like?
Note for the fans who caught it: the visual of the “Quarterback” evading the sack was actually of Running Back Christian McCaffrey—we’ll stick to the physics field 😉.
