TIMESTAMPS:
00:00:00 Introduction.
00:04:16 Overview of Superdeterminism.
00:08:31 Bernardo’s agreements / disagreements.
00:13:15 It’s more promising to violate statistical independence (SI)
00:15:59 What are the hidden variables in Superdeterminism?
00:18:20 What is statistical independence? Is it a mere assumption?
00:22:41 People claim Superdeterminism isn’t falsifiable, but is it?
00:31:17 Back and forth criticism and justification of proposed experiments.
00:38:35 Does experiment change the outcome of what’s measured?
00:41:37 Contrarian views — should they be put forward tentatively?
00:44:57 Decoherence and the observer.
00:49:22 The observer (and consciousness) is irrelevant in quantum mechanics.
00:52:37 Why oppose violating statistical independence (SI)?
00:54:57 Metaphysics? Or simply trying to solve the measurement problem?
00:55:57 We don’t have a good reason to depart with SI
00:59:10 Holding Sabine to higher standards than John Bell?
