Part 9/12:
A provocative claim is made: if we could discover the underlying, fundamental equations of nature, they would eliminate the concept of superposition altogether. This notion hinges on the idea that superpositions—where particles exist in multiple states simultaneously—are merely artifacts of incomplete knowledge or a misconception.
The speaker envisions a deterministic universe in which every event and state is definite. In such a universe, the uncertainty, superposition, and probabilistic nature of current quantum theory would not exist at the fundamental level. Instead, the apparent indeterminacy and superpositions are products of our limited perspective.
