Are all arrows of time special cases of the thermodynamic one?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on whether all arrows of time, specifically the psychological and cosmological arrows, are derived from the thermodynamic arrow. It is suggested that the psychological arrow of time is indeed a consequence of the thermodynamic arrow, indicating a link between perception and entropy. In contrast, the cosmological arrow of time is argued to be independent of the thermodynamic arrow. Various types of arrows of time, including radiative, causal, and quantum, are mentioned but not deeply explored. Ultimately, the relationship between these arrows highlights complex interactions in the understanding of time.

Are all arrows of time special cases of the thermodynamic one? The arrows of time I am referring to are the psychological arrow of time and the cosmological arrow of time. Thanks.

In short, the psychological arrow of time is a consequence of the thermodynamic one. The cosmological arrow of time isn't.
