What was your most exciting takeaway from the quantum physics sequence?
That it all "adds up to normality".
So I can finally ignore all those articles shared on social networks about how conscious observers magically cause things to happen. Without the nagging doubt that I may be preserving my peace of mind by ignoring some existing aspect of reality.
That's probably the most useful and least controversial part of it.
Is it still somewhat controversial? Meaning, are there respected physicists who think that conscious observers do magically cause things to happen?
Roger Penrose is very respected.
But "conscious observers do magically cause things to happen" isn't a good description of his hypothesis.
