    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    Hello. I misunderstood your paper, then, I thought you were arguing the opposite.

    It seems a good point, thanks.

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    I am having troubles with this reasoning. It's seems that if you say "you will win the lottery in 2030", is true, but then this apply too if you say "next second you will tunnel into the moon", but well, you are still here...

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    Despite some interesting remarks, unfortunately, it seems to me that some kind of Subjective Immortality is probably true, let's summarise and debate if there are flaws and try to debunk it. I think, essentially this is required: - Possiblity: it's possible to live indefinitely. There are some...

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    That could be the fundamental question, and I am not sure... Objectively you die, but subjectively you are what you experience, so I don't know... If the Principle of Indiscernibles is true, then, the next-second you and a Boltzmann Brain identical to him are the same person. And then, wouldn't...

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    Yes, but if they are indiscernibles at the point of your death, and dying is not a divergence, because you won't experience a different things, just ceased to experience, the one who survive is indiscernible from the others (subjectively), so you are the same, so you are the one who survive, I...

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    There are some papers on Subjective Immortality (not only Quantum, but involving infinite universes, Boltmann Brains, etc.), I think they are not peer-reviewed, but from my layman's vision the reasonings seems plausible. Here they are, if somebody more expert wants to read them and tell us his...

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    But assuming physicalism and the identity of indiscernibles (I am not sure if mainstream theories on conciousness do it), it's not about a different version of you surviving: from a subjective perspective, you are the version who will survive. I mean, there are, right now, infinite persons like...

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    Maybe I didn't understand well previous objections, but it seems that assuming physicalism, and an infinite universe in space or time, if Leibniz' Principle of the Identity of Indiscernibles is true and apply to conciousness (and then, a person exactly like you is you) and the Infinite Monkeys...

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    Interesting, I have to think about it, thanks... If you or somebody else wants to make more remarks on this, please, do it. Yes, I know it, I am talking about infinites because it seems to be the only way this could maybe work without MWI, since these events are almost impossible... But I'm not...

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    Wait... I was seeing this like if there were a lot of people like you somewhere, you will die and maybe some of them survive, but this doesn't affect you... However, if the universe is infinite in space, you are "rebirthing" continually, and if conciousness has nothing special, and a person...

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    It seems that Carroll don't believe in it, he said this on Reddit:

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    Yes, I know the concept. Boltzmann Brains are usually dismissed saying that if you were one, it would be more probable to don't observe a coherent world. Mallah makes a similar objection to QI: if it was true and you could be live indefinitely, since there are more "survival" observer moments...

    I Quantum Immortality without MWI?

    Hello. There is the idea that Many Worlds interpretations could imply subjective immortality (known as Quantum Immortality). However, could this work even if MWI is not true? If the universe is infinite in space or time, or there are an infinite number of universes like ours (several...
