Kinda agree on Sam Harris.
The best way to view it is we all act as if we have agency, and that brings about positive outcomes, so what does it matter if it is all deterministic.
In other words, now you have the information, what does it change?
The answer is nothing. Act as if you have free will, even if it is determined that you do. 😂
The only other option is to immerse yourself in nihilism. That's gay AF.
