Another Departure...

Bohm was never satisfied with the "spooky action at a distance" of the dominant Copenhagen interpretation of quantum theory. Rather, he opted to extend Louis de Broglie's pilot-wave theory. To that end he focused on hidden variables which were experimentally inaccessible, such as the "quantum potential", to negate the Uncertainty Principle and render Quantum Mechanics into a deterministic theory.

Yet in my interpretation, the Uncertainty Principle might very well be a corollary of Free Will.
