Will we ever truly understand QM and all the metaphysical questions it brings with it?

Will we ever truly understand QM and all the metaphysical questions it brings with it?

It's all just functional analysis

I feel that we just need more developed number theory to explain Quantum mechanics.
Whether or not we ever will begs the question of whether or not it is even possible. Maybe not.

Just keep in mind that knowing something will NOT make you happy and peaceful in the long term. The only way to be happy is to perceive the world as being perfect already.

>Will we ever truly understand QM
Yes
>all the metaphysical questions it brings with it
There are none

Yes Chen, and what metaphysical questions?

...

you wot

...

this man needs to donate his body to science so we can figure out how the fuck he is still alive today.

not understanding quantum mechanics is a meme
we have a good grasp and understanding of quantum mechanics

>inb4 but the standard model isn't complete

Why does the "top" quark weigh approximately the same as the nucleus of an atom of gold, how is that even possible?

>we have a good grasp and understanding of quantum mechanics
"If you think you understand quantum mechanics, you don't"

That was true fifty years ago. It isn't true anymore these days, and hasn't been for some time.

Then explain the observer effect.
With proof please, don't just spout your opinion.

>observer effect

not the guy you're replying to, but it's called an effect because we've observed and measured it and proven it to exist

what exactly do you want to prove?

This is a shit explanation

Only true answer ITT

What fundamental metaphysics is best motivated by quantum mechanics? What is the ontological status of the wave function? Does quantum mechanics support the existence of any other fundamental entities, e.g. particles? What is the nature of the fundamental space (or space-time manifold) of quantum mechanics? What is the relationship between the fundamental ontology of quantum mechanics and ordinary, macroscopic objects like tables, chairs, and persons?

metaphysics is stupid

Maybe. If a version of spontaneous collapse theory turns out to be right, then it's actually quite classical in behavior. Still true-random, but at least there's a real real out there.

Or maybe Schrodinger's wave equation is fully accurate, and we're fucked.
