A new study suggests that the classical world we experience emerges naturally from quantum systems without requiring special conditions, as demonstrated through simulations and the many worlds theory:
- Quantum mechanics reveals a separate realm of tiny particles where particles can exist in multiple states at once, unlike the classical world.
- A new study suggests that the classical world naturally emerges from a wide range of quantum systems, supporting the many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics.
- The formation of a classical system from quantum events is a natural and unavoidable process, as demonstrated by computer simulations analyzing the evolution of various quantum systems.
This paper presents a new Local Friendliness (LF) no-go theorem that explores the idea that a system having thoughts is sufficient for it to be considered an observer. This theorem utilizes four metaphysical assumptions, three of which are thought-related, to derive LF inequalities applicable to systems exhibiting "Friendliness". The theorem also relies on assumptions about human-level AI and universal quantum computing.
