I don't believe in free will as IMO we are just complex machines conditioned by our environment.

If we had free will, then I wonder: would the other animals have free will too? If not, where would be the "barrier" between the minds with "free will" and the ones without it be?

This would be in my opinion a tricky question and there are a lot more if you think about it

So just keep it simple, not having free will has more sense to me

For some reason I can't imagine a non deterministic universe, since I am used to the action-reaction scheme...

Physicists
say
that
in
the
quantum
world
things
are
random
but
i
can't
understand
that.
As
far
as
I
know,
they
say
that
you
can't
know
the
velocity
of
an
electron
and
at
the
same
time
its
position
(
or
something
like
that)
because
you
modify
in
the
process
of
obtaining
information.
Am
I
wrong?.
But
that
doesn't
imply
that
the
universe
is
non
deterministic,
does
it?

Anyway I guess I agree with google, there is no way to know that unless you watch from outside the universe. Thinking of the universe as a program is a good analogy.
