The Sage · Quest for The Free Will Problem

The Freedom Debate

The Prompt

Write a structured overview of the free will debate covering hard determinism, compatibilism (Frankfurt, P.F. Strawson), and libertarian free will (Kane), incorporating Libet's neuroscientific findings and Wegner's illusionism. For each position, present its strongest formulation and the objection it has most struggled to answer. Conclude by explaining why the problem remains unsolved despite contributions from philosophy, neuroscience, and physics.

Completion Criteria

A structured overview covering at least three major positions with accurate attributions, each position's strongest argument and most challenging objection, and a concluding assessment of why convergence has not been achieved.
