There is no room for free will with any interpretation of quantum
mechanics, or in classical mechanics, or in anything, because the idea of
free will just makes no sense. Something either happens because of cause
and effect or it doesn't happen because of cause-and-effect (aka it's
random) and free will fans would not be happy with either. And so I fear
free will fans are destined to be unhappy.
