It's kinda fricked up because despite how much of modern science is built on this concept, I'm not sure if there's a single agreed upon definition of what "observation" even means besides some handwavy "information about an event leaks... somewhere"

dont particles "observe" each other when they are affected by each other in any capacity? where is this sapient thought thing coming from?
why is a planet existing with the qualities of earth mean sentience might be pre-determined? cant it be just because the universe is really big with a lot of combinations of any possible outcome happening somewhere? of course sentient life would exist in place where its possible, rather than not??
why would the fundamental laws of physics being the way they are considered a rare luck for us? arent they set in stone?

He's literally not saying anything, his entire explanation is complete nonsense that provides nothing of value. It's worthless philosophy, practiced by those who would rather wallow in their own misery then accept the greatness that is the improbability
@Geralt_of_Uganda stop watching Rick and Morty

I didn't even claim to subscribe to the idea, I myself said that there are arguments against it so calm your tits
Jesus it literally just says that instead of treating probabilities as independent you should treat them as conditional. It doesn't make any statements about the likelihood of an event, instead it predicts the likelihood of you observing an event. Similarly it does not offer any info on why things are the way they are so it is NOT and should not be used as an explanation to anything either
See my previous point, it does make predictions on expected measurements

There's just so many things in physics that don't make sense. It's more likely that the world is a simulation run on a Dyson Sphere than the universe works like we think it does.

is earth older than 7 thousand years and did dinosaurs exist?

Both. Merge it all. It's a simulation on a dyson sphere, earth is 4.6B yrs old, dinos were a pre-alpha to us, jesus was an admin outside the simulation with console access. The holy trinity still stands- just different forms of the admin interacting with us.
Simulation theory and christianity basically explain each others unanswered questions, but only if you try really hard to look for connections and want it to work.

Youre right, everyone who says otherwise is either religious or some I-fricking-love-science-cel who needs to believe in a higher power out there somewhere BUT NOT GOD!!! (religious but even more r-slurred)

maybe I'm r-slurred but my understanding is the "observer effect" is different from how things work on a quantum scale when it comes to things "collapsing".
