Comment by subjective on Quantum Mechanics, Nothing to do with Consciousness · 2019-12-24T20:19:10.450Z · LW · GW

But how do you know that there was or wasn't an interference pattern? Did some conscious being observe the results? Oh, but it was after the fact? The quantum erasure experiment proves that time doesn't matter to wave function collapse. There is nothing more "woo" about consciousness causing the collapse vs a many worlds interpretation or any other interpretation of quantum physics. The "woo" label is personal feelings and not science. It's academic slander.
