Outdated but still contains some useful ideas. The wave function is necessarily collapsing upon observation in the Copenhagen interpretation. Since the wave function is not a separate distinct function for every object in the universe (even the Copenhagen interpretation says this) it is really the wave function of the universe. Tell me, does the universe exist? Then the wave function didn't collapse.
