Currently most people would say they have a large amount of free will. Will there be enough studies and literature published by 2050 to reduce how scientifically literate people think about the degree of Free Will.
Examples: greater understanding of how environment, neurotransmitters, genetics and more influenced thinking and choices.
I'm not sure of a good quantitative way to measure the change. But it should be large enough that it's easy to agree by comparing common viewpoints across time.
The emergence of high-quality consumer AGI systems will totally change how the average person thinks about all of the usual "what makes us human" questions. Consciousness, free will, etc
@adele I guess it would depend on the context at the end date. N/A if it’s too murky. Whatever the underlying concepts, currently a lot of people talk about discipline, making choices, self-control, and seem to demonstrate a belief they can make conscious decisions.
