论文摘要
自1970年代以来，人类原则一直与我们同在。该原理可以考虑到粒子物理标准模型的25个常数的“微调”。如果这些常数截然不同，那么生活就不可能存在。人类原则条件对生命的存在，并得出结论，25个常数的价值必须在允许生命的范围内。最常见的一步是假设存在大量的25个常数值组合的巨大多元宇宙的存在。通过根据自己的生活来调节，我们必须处于一个价值观允许生命的宇宙中。 人类原则通常被认为是无法测试的，因为我们不能与其他宇宙接触。我的目的是在这里表明人类原则是可以测试的，并且其解释力很弱：该原理似乎可以对地球及其生命的生命做出可检验的错误预测。当只需要19个小原子来生命时，人类原则似乎无法预测98个稳定原子的存在。
The Anthropic Principle has been with us since the 1970s. This Principle is advanced to account for the "fine tuning" of the 25 constants of the Standard Model of Particle Physics. Were these constants very different, life could not exist. The Anthropic Principle conditions on the existence of life and concludes that the value of the 25 constants must be within a range that allows life. The most common further step is to postulate the existence of a vast multiverse with vastly many combinations of the values of the 25 constants. By conditioning on our own life, we must be in a universe whose values allow life. The Anthropic Principle is commonly held to be untestable because we cannot be in contact with other universes. I aim here to show the Anthropic Principle is testable and that its explanatory power is weak: The Principle seems to make testably false predictions about planet Earth and the life on it. The Anthropic Principle seems unable to predict the existence of 98 stable atoms, when only 19 small atoms are needed for life.
