Although the concept of an observing device with memory is very simple and definable in terms of algorithmic machine, it is not compatible with a predictive theory involving this concept. This is sufficient to show that Physics as a whole cannot be deterministic; moreover, using the Conway-Kochen Free Will Theorem [1] and the simple logical proof of it we gave in [2], we show, without any need of free will or observer's freedom, that Quantum Mechanics are not deterministic.
