Скачать или смотреть The Illusion of Choice: A Time Traveler's Paradox | Thought-Provoking Short Story

What if changing the past only creates new timelines while your original reality remains unchanged? "The Illusion of Choice" follows Professor Eleanor Chen, a brilliant physicist who builds a time machine to save her drowned brother. When she discovers that her interventions merely create alternate realities without changing her own, she embarks on a journey across the multiverse that challenges everything we believe about free will, determinism, and the nature of choice.
This original short story explores the philosophical paradox of choice in a multiverse where every possibility exists simultaneously. As Eleanor witnesses the unexpected consequences of her temporal interventions, she uncovers a disturbing pattern: the sum total of suffering remains constant across all timelines, suggesting a cosmic balance that cannot be broken.
Perfect for fans of philosophical science fiction in the tradition of Ted Chiang's "Story of Your Life," Philip K. Dick's "The Adjustment Team," and the mind-bending concepts of "Dark" and "Devs."
Is free will merely an illusion? Or is it the only illusion that matters?
