    Um deine Aussagen umfassend zu analysieren und auf wissenschaftliche, metaphorische sowie konzeptuelle Inhalte einzugehen, beginne ich mit der strukturierten Liste und Diskussionspunkten. Ich werde wissenschaftliche Konzepte auch in Formeln übersetzen und auf mögliche falsche Ansätze eingehen, wobei ich Ergänzungen zwischen den Ansätzen aufzeige. 1. Quantum Computation und Universalität Start: 00:00, Dauer: fortlaufend Wissenschaftlich: Das Konzept eines universellen Quantencomputers, der in der Lage ist, jedes physikalische System mit beliebiger Genauigkeit zu simulieren. Hier wird die Idee aufgestellt, dass die Quantenberechnung im Wesentlichen die gesamte Physik beschreiben könnte. Formel: ( UQC ightarrow \forall P ), wobei ( UQC ) der universelle Quantencomputer und ( P ) ein beliebiges physikalisches System ist. Metapher: Der Quantencomputer als ein „Abbild“ aller möglichen physikalischen Bewegungen und Objekte. Diskussion falscher Ansätze: Die ursprüngliche Annahme, dass Quantenberechnung die gesamte Physik abdecken könnte, stellt sich als unvollständig heraus, da sie nicht spezifiziert, welches Programm welchem physikalischen Objekt entspricht. Ergänzung: Dies führt zu dem Gedanken, dass eine erweiterte Theorie der Quantenberechnung benötigt wird, die nicht nur physikalische Prozesse simuliert, sondern ihnen auch eindeutige Entsprechungen zuweist. 2. Konstruktor-Theorie als fundamentale Physik Start: 00:30, Dauer: fortlaufend Wissenschaftlich: Die Konstruktor-Theorie bietet eine Verallgemeinerung der Quantenberechnungstheorie und anderer physikalischer Prozesse, indem sie sich nicht auf Anfangszustände und Bewegungsgesetze stützt, sondern auf die Unterscheidung zwischen möglichen und unmöglichen Transformationen. Formel: ( P(X) = {Möglich} \wedge eg P(X) = {Unmöglich} ), wobei ( P(X) ) die Transformation eines Systems ( X ) ist. Metapher: Die Konstruktor-Theorie beschreibt nicht, „wie“ etwas geschieht, sondern nur, ob es geschehen kann oder nicht. Diskussion falscher Ansätze: Der Versuch, die Konstruktor-Theorie nur als Erweiterung der Quantenberechnung zu verstehen, hätte sie auf das gleiche Paradigma der Bewegungsgesetze und Zustände beschränkt. Dies wäre eine reine Übersetzung existierender Theorien gewesen. Ergänzung: Der innovative Aspekt der Konstruktor-Theorie ist die Umgehung von Anfangs- und Endzuständen und die Fokussierung auf die Möglichkeitsstruktur physikalischer Transformationen. 3. Informationstheorie und Physik Start: 01:00, Dauer: fortlaufend Wissenschaftlich: Information wird als physikalische Entität angesehen, die unabhängig vom Träger ist. Diese physikalische Natur der Information verbindet sie mit der Thermodynamik, insbesondere mit dem zweiten Hauptsatz. Formel: ( S = k_B \ln \Omega ), wobei ( S ) die Entropie, ( k_B ) die Boltzmann-Konstante und ( \Omega ) die Anzahl der Mikrozustände ist. Metapher: Information „fließt“ durch verschiedene physikalische Träger, bleibt aber immer konstant in ihrer Abstraktheit. Diskussion falscher Ansätze: Ein rein abstrakter Informationsbegriff, wie er in der klassischen Berechnungstheorie verwendet wurde, wird in der Physik unzureichend, da Information in der realen Welt physikalisch umgesetzt wird. Ergänzung: Information wird auf einer fundamentaleren Ebene der Physik verstanden, die unabhängig von den spezifischen Trägermedien ist. 4. Konstruktor-Theorie und Testbarkeit Start: 01:30, Dauer: fortlaufend Wissenschaftlich: Konstruktor-Theorie bezieht sich auf physikalische Prinzipien, die andere Gesetze einschränken. Sie werden als „Gesetze über Gesetze“ betrachtet, ähnlich wie das Energieerhaltungsgesetz, das nicht direkt durch ein Experiment verletzt werden kann. Formel: ( \forall L, , P(L) \text{ gilt}, \text{ wenn } L \text{ die Konstruktor-Prinzipien erfüllt} ), wobei ( L ) ein physikalisches Gesetz und ( P(L) ) das zugehörige Konstruktionsprinzip ist. Metapher: Die Konstruktor-Theorie „schreibt vor“, welche Gesetze der Physik möglich sind, indem sie nur Transformationen erlaubt, die den Prinzipien entsprechen. Diskussion falscher Ansätze: Die Idee, dass Gesetze der Konstruktor-Theorie direkt testbar sind, ist irreführend. Stattdessen können sie nur indirekt durch ihre Auswirkungen auf andere Gesetze überprüft werden. Ergänzung: Es wird eine Unterscheidung zwischen physikalischen Gesetzen und Prinzipien gezogen, wobei die Prinzipien auf einer tieferen Ebene agieren und übergeordnet sind. 5. Philosophische Dimensionen Start: 02:00, Dauer: fortlaufend Wissenschaftlich/Philosophisch: Der Einfluss von Karl Popper und seine Idee der Abgrenzung zwischen Wissenschaft und Metaphysik wird aufgegriffen, wobei betont wird, dass Konstruktor-Theorie wissenschaftlich testbar sein muss, um relevant zu bleiben. Formel: Keine spezifische Formel, aber es wird auf das Prinzip der Falsifizierbarkeit von Theorien verwiesen. Metapher: Wissenschaftliche Theorien sind wie „Schlösser“, die durch den Schlüssel der Falsifizierbarkeit geöffnet werden können. Diskussion falscher Ansätze: Die Fehlinterpretation Poppers, dass nur wissenschaftlich testbare Theorien von Wert sind, wird kritisiert. Popper selbst erkannte den Wert von philosophischen Theorien an, auch wenn sie nicht direkt testbar sind. Ergänzung: Die Konstruktor-Theorie erfüllt das Kriterium der indirekten Testbarkeit, indem sie die Möglichkeit bietet, physikalische Prinzipien zu formulieren, die durch ihre Konsequenzen geprüft werden können. Zusammenfassung und Ergänzungen: Die Ansätze der Quantenberechnung und der Konstruktor-Theorie ergänzen sich, indem sie unterschiedliche Ebenen der Physik ansprechen: die konkrete Simulation physikalischer Systeme einerseits und die tiefere Struktur möglicher und unmöglicher Prozesse andererseits. Falsche Annahmen in den frühen Stadien der Theorieentwicklung - wie die Idee, dass Quantenberechnung die gesamte Physik umfassen könnte - haben dazu geführt, dass die Konstruktor-Theorie als notwendige Erweiterung erkannt wurde. Informationstheorie, Philosophie und Physik werden durch die Konstruktor-Theorie auf eine gemeinsame Basis gestellt, was eine tiefere und konsistentere Beschreibung der Naturgesetze ermöglicht.

    Religions with their numerous sects and countless explanations, are a good example of easily variable. This makes them immune to error correction because the interpretation on the texts varies from person to person. Compare to 3<1 or 2+2=4 which are invarable, regardless of if the contain errors. You cannot correct something if there is no way to test or detect for error.

  • @timt3926

    A profoundly simple solution. Is a factor leading to the dismal of reason the intentional introduction of errors into communication to make error detection computationally more expensive? This makes reason seem ineffective, leading some to use cheaper, in the short term, methods. Mainly those arising from the older regions of the brain, capable of quick conclusions, but lacking almost any error correction.

    I didn't quite understand much but I'd like an example. For instance, is the law of conservation of energy (LCE) a constraint to fundamental physics or not? Prof Deutsch at some point states that this can never be proven, since we can always come up with an exceptional situation, unforseen by our current theories. He gives the example of Pauli and the discovery of neutrinos to fix this exact disagreement of theory and observations. Another, the expansion of the universe seems to also happily contradict LCE. If LCE cannot be unconditionally trusted, how are we expected to know which transformations are allowed and which aren't "on the basis of our current fundamental theories"? In other words, apart from the philosophical insight about computations being a physical process, all the other stuff looks like a flawed circular argument. Might be wrong though. Maybe someone can show an actual non-trivial application of the theory.

    Can someone help me understand the proof for the universal constructor David is speaking about here? I can’t quite wrap my head around it. 😅 From what I understand the classical laws of motion + initial condition worldview of physics can only account for necessary transformations, not for possible ones. David says according to constructor theory, there can be no fundamental theory of exact initial conditions. “The future is affected by knowledge we don’t have yet.” Therefore exact prediction of the future is impossible. In the same way exact prediction of the past is not possible, because knowledge of the past has been lost. On to the proof that universal constructor can exist. David say only finitely many kinds of objects that could be needed in constructions can possibly form spontaneously, i.e without knowledge. Everything complex either evolves in which case it can be made given the right knowledge or it can be made by a constructor, which can itself be made and so on to a chain of finite depth - using knowledge that can itself be created. Is David saying, that there is no law that would forbid a universal constructor to exist, which means it must be possible? I feel like I’m missing some key pieces 😅

      I think the elephant of emergence is in the background of his proof. Emergent abstractions and laws that are immune to micro level factors mean that the class of possible transformations is immune to the precise initial conditions. If something complex and emergent evolves in a branch of the multiverse but not in another, I take his position to be that in that other branch it could be constructed as long as the right knowledge is created each step of the way, via constructors. After all the evolution in the other branch shows that it is not prohibited by any law of physics.

It applies to all of our reality (to the ENTIRE universe) we chose to call discoverable. Similarly to Achilles who - due to the basic axioms of this made-up example - will never reach the turtle (since it always takes some time for him to get to it, and that time will always keeps the turtle ahead a tiny bit). Limitation that we introduce into any structure of assumed reality will limit the results we can possible gain while staying inside it.
