L1-MX02 the brain is a causal machine

So what about free will almost certainly brains are causal machines by which I
mean that they go from state to state as a result of antecedent conditions any
particular state whether it's a perception of a face or whether it's a
reflex to withdraw from pain is a result of antecedent conditions at least that
seems to be true from everything we know so far in neurobiology everything we
know at the level of the single neuron and what causes it to behave the way it
does the way neurons interact with each other
to produce a complex macro effect and the way that many levels of neurons
interact with each other to produce a behavior it's a causal machine there
does not appear to be so far as we can tell at this stage in a non-causal
cartesian substance that intervenes and has an effect on the brain to produce a
change or a decision it looks like there is only the physical brain but of course
having said it's only a physical brain don't sell it short it's a remarkable
unique unbelievably complex and we're only just learning how complex organ
