So, /sci/, is free will just an illusion? Are all of our decisions

This is a board for science and math discussion. This topic has nothing to do with science, and promotes the worst kind of pop-philosophy and fedora that we get in /sci/. Please stop.

Free will is just an illusion, because even though everything probably is random at quantum-level, everything seems to follow chaos-theory on the macro-scale.
Now please do not ever ask this question in here ever again, because the answer has now been absolutely fulfilled and desu this question doesn't belong in this board.

>is it an illusion
Yes, in the sense that literally everything you experience is an "illusion" in that it doesn't reflect the actual physical nature, lossiness, and limitations of the brain and sensory systems perceiving, interpreting, and remembering it.

This doesn't mean it isn't real or meaningful. The fact that you have only ever perceived the illusion of a world doesn't mean there isn't an actual real world that it closely maps to, and nor do the illusions of self and will mean that "self" and "will" aren't real, meaningful concepts.

Free will is not a meaningful concept though.

Is illusion a helpful notion if it's all we experience?

Standard answer to a loaded question is 'mu'.
