Do you guys believe in superdeterminism, or do you think do universe in probabilistic in nature? if you do believe in superdeterminism what do you make of concepts like free-will or causality. Do you think that we have to change our ethical models in case such a thing comes out to be true?

I'm pretty sure that the scientific consensus is that the universe is probabilistic, although global hidden variable stuff is technically not completely falsified.

What if it the universe only seems probablisitc due to our incomplete and possibly inaccurate model of physics?

Personally I would rather it be probablisitc as to not have to thret over existential problems such as free will and the implications of causality

I mean that's effectively why global hidden variable stuff isn't completely falsified, if I understand. I am not a professional cosmologist/astrophysicist or whatever, of course.
