Abstract：
In this introduction to a thematic issue dealing with free will, some possibilities of free will in different physical, social, and technological worlds, as well as discussions of the possibilities are considered. What are the possibilities and limitations of free will in various other worlds differing from our world? What are the possibilities and limitations of free will in different species, both in our world and in other hypothetical worlds, including future species, naturally evolving, and artificially modified? What are the possibilities and limitations of free will related to the development of AI? How can the diversity of free will levels in an agent be related to possible levels (depth) of its self-knowledge? What can agents differing in levels of self-knowledge know and think about the issue of free will? How do different societies (social worlds) support and inhibit different manifestations of free will in different areas? What is the role of hard neurodeterminism and \"mindless neuroscience\" in general neuroscience? What are ethical aspects of the questions, including the initial one: \"If a neuroscientist denies free will, how can they write a text of voluntary informed consent and propose to sign it?\".
摘要：
在这个关于自由意志的主题问题的介绍中，自由意志在不同身体中的一些可能性，社会,和技术世界，以及对可能性的讨论都在考虑之中。在与我们的世界不同的其他世界中，自由意志的可能性和局限性是什么？在我们的世界和其他假设的世界中，包括未来的物种,自然进化，和人为修改？自由意志的可能性和局限性与人工智能的发展有关？代理人中自由意志水平的多样性如何与其自我知识的可能水平（深度）相关？不同自我知识水平的代理人可以了解和思考自由意志问题吗？不同的社会（社会世界）如何支持和抑制自由意志在不同领域的不同表现？硬神经科学和“无思想神经科学”的作用是什么？包括最初的一句话：“如果一个神经科学家否认自由意志，他们怎么能写一份自愿知情同意书并建议签署呢？”
