A non-dual interpretation of Newcomb's paradox: Integrating free will and perfect prediction
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: “This essay offers a functional solution to Newcomb's Paradox by reinterpreting it from a non-dual framework inspired by Advaita Vedanta, using the phenomenon of lucid dreaming as an analogy. It is argued that if the player and the Oracle are not separate entities, but manifestations of a single consciousness, then the apparent paradox dissolves.”
