The Obvious Problem That No One Can Agree On - Veritasium What are you? Please answer the question before getting into the explanation part of the video (starting at 3:32). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ol18JoeXlVI&t=709s This is one of the better Veritasium videos I've watched. I especially like the comments on free will, how to live your life, and rationality. > Whether we do or don't have free will, you have to live as though it exists. This resonates with me because in my mid-20s, I entered a (quasi)depressive mindset where, after reading several books touching on this topic, it made me feel like whatever I did, it didn't matter. I then, at some point, just decided to live by the idea that free will exists, as the alternative was not worth living anymore (and also, it almost alienated a few people around me when I tried to elaborate on those metaphysical ideas). https://stacker.news/items/1451423
