Mathematical experiment shows quantum theory is incompatible with classical realism

Maths experiment was carried out demonstrating that while it is possible to predict with probability one what the outcome of a series of measurements will be through quantum theory, it can also be proven that the value did not exist prior to the measurement.

Chris Fuchs, a theoretical physicist, discusses an experiment in which quantum mechanics is incompatible with the value being there before it is measured, suggesting physicalism may be false and something more conscious-like may be fundamental, however, a mathematical model that's falsifiable or testable still needs to be provided.
