Dec 13, 2023 at 18:42 | comment | added | Corbin | This answer could be salvaged, if it noted that QM requires either superdeterminism or superluminal transmission of information in order to have local hidden variables. For bonus points, it could note that folks tend to give up local hidden variables before giving up locality. | |

Feb 12, 2018 at 23:15 | comment | added | CriglCragl | No he wasn't. Hence the EPR Paradox, and Aspect experiments that demonstrated entanglement. | |
Feb 12, 2018 at 23:03 | comment | added | Nat | @CriglCragl I'm not following. Einstein was mostly right about determinism. The cosmological constant is a weaker proposition, though Einstein's own criticism of it may've been a tad too harsh. | |
Feb 12, 2018 at 22:57 | comment | added | CriglCragl | I linked it because even Einstein went with what people thought in his time, and proved to be wrong. I thought that was clear? Determinism the same. | |
Feb 12, 2018 at 22:35 | comment | added | Nat | @CriglCragl The cosmological constant stuff isn't related to determinism. | |
Feb 12, 2018 at 22:15 | comment | added | CriglCragl | It's worth adding that in what he called his 'greatest mistake' he added a cosmological constant to his analysis of the universe so as to make it static, leaving the idea that it was expanding to be found by Hubble. Physicists, including Einstein, had a predilection to find a static eternal universe, and it isn't. They wanted it deterministic, and it isn't. | |
