Depends what you mean by "free will". Reasoning based on past experience is one good definition (by which criterion a computer can have free will too, and without being conscious).
Another good definition is "first person unpredictability" (not knowing what you will do next). Presumably random noise in the brain will influence a random decision (i.e. one where there is no reason to prefer one outcome over another). That appears to be what is happening in this experiment. I'm not sure if everyone would agree this is "free will". -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
