I’m curious if your conversations with @SamHarrisOrg changed your perspectives on the conceptual framing of free will - since that seemed to be your main sticking point with him.

This tweet is one year too early. The rest of excited readers will have to exercise our own free will in order to get it at any cost.

I’ve always felt that intuition pumps serve as explanation through elucidation with concrete examples. If explanation deepens understanding of known facts, arguments extends knowledge of facts priorly unknown. My take over the freewill debate is whether it’s a datum...

...that we have libertarian freewill, and explain how it is given that human consciousness evolved, or we are arguing for its illusoriness.

I have reached some conclusions about free will, but I look forward to reading this book and checking my assumptions.

I’ll give it a read. I strongly suspect that I already know where we disagree though

What we call "free will" is a capacity to choose "mentally" how we intend to behave and then act accordingly, in order to carry it out. It all happens physically, so including the so-called "mental" aspect of it in our physical brains, at work electromagnetically!

I argue that what we call our mind and consciousness in general is the ability to process information which many other animal species possess to some degree. "Minds" have thus evolved, physically, being a key part of how bodies operate and function in terms of physical brains.
