Part 6/10:
Penrose uses the concept of retrocausation to illustrate what he calls the "Hemingway Paradox." This paradox grapples with the troubling notion that a person may consciously decide to take an action—like pulling a trigger on a gun—after the action has already occurred in a classical sense. Under the Orch-OR model, the decision to pull the trigger could theoretically be made in a retroactive quantum framework, leading to a complex relationship between consciousness and physical actions.
