Evolution of biological brains is overwhelmingly more likely than creation of Boltzmann Brains in a universe that is only a small number of billions of years old. You absolutely need evolution in order to build complex systems when you have only a few billion years to play with, because it breaks down construction into an easy stepwise process, thus avoiding the need for an extremely improbable single-step construction process.Stephen Luttrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05612770386489550404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17232904.post-16725641776131021082008-12-08T20:31:00.000+00:002008-12-08T20:31:00.000+00:00Thank you for your post, I have been looking for s...Thank you for your post, I have been looking for someone making the point you make in 1). The discussion of Boltzmann brains miss to account the reality of the evolutionary process (no matter whether you can deduce it from pure thermodynamics or not).<BR/>Perhaps the origin (fluctuation) of our universe (environment) with billon brains formed by evolution is much more likely than a single brain popping out from fluctuations. If this is the case there is no BB paradox.<BR/>It is difficult to say until somebody put some numbers to this probabilities. But the discussion makes no sense until they take into account that evolution (biological and stellar) is a process that don't need continuous improbable thermal fluctuations (but only one, that perhaps is more likely than the one to fluctuate into a single BB).AlfChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09583505786753076063noreply@blogger.com
