Just 2 (old) references On quantum-mechanical automata -David Z. Albert Physics Letters A Volume 98, Issues 5–6, 24 October 1983, Pages 249-252 Abstract An automaton whose states are solutions of quantum-mechanical equations of motion is described, and the capacities of such an automaton to “measure” and to “know” and to “predict” certain physical properties of the world are considered. It is inquired what sort of empirical description such an automaton would produce of itself. It turns out that this description would be a very novel one, such as was never imagined in conventional theories of measurement.
On quantum-mechanical automata -Asher Peres Physics Letters A Volume 101, Issues 5–6, 2 April 1984, Pages 249-250 Abstract An automaton which can “measure” or “know” or “predict” the values of physical quantities cannot be described by quantum mechanics. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
