1.0: Free Will

In the debut episode of The Thought Experiment, David and Amelia dive into the nuanced topic of free will. What do we actually mean when we say free will? If we don’t have free will, how do we determine guilt and blame? We explore many such questions, probing what it means to make decisions as conscious beings.
