It’s common to believe that we have the power to “change” the future but not the past.
That’s the free-will debate. Does the “solution” to one-box depend on rejection of free will?
Do you believe that objects in the future waver in and out of existence as you deliberate?
(On the free will debate: The common conception of free will is confused. But that doesn’t mean our will isn’t free, or imply fatalism.)
I am aware of the LW (well, EY’s, I guess) position on free will. But here we are discussing the Newcomb’s Problem. We can leave free will to another time. Still, what about my question?
