I noticed that you did not even reply to my posts, which means that your presence in this thread is at least insincere, if not outright disingenuous. Free will does not exist in human beings; this is absolutely clear in individuals who have schizophrenia, split-brain, temporal lobe epilepsy, Alzheimer's, dementia, aphasia, etc. If you had a stroke in the Broca's area of your brain, your ability to speak would be severly impaired, as well as your ability to understand speech. Such would not be a choice on your part, any more than your brain could choose to violate the Conservation of Energy.
Hi Jen.
If a human can form an algorithm then that human have free will.
Does these diseases hinder humans from forming an algorithm? Then they do not possess free will.
