What it implies, essentially, is that the interfering act of observation is causing the wave function of the particles to be dissipated, and has nothing to do with any supernatural "intelligence" being displayed by the electron itself. Mostly pointing to our lack of understanding of how the wave function gets depleted by the act of interference, and that has not been explained, yet.
Arguably, but go back to the post 53 situation, and consider the case where the electron beam is slowed down so as to only emit a single electron at a time.
The single electron emitted, in a traditional way of thinking, would only pass through one or the other of the two open slits, not both at the same time.
How does it “know” at the time it passes through one such slit whether the other slit is open so as to (together with its predecessor and successor brother electrons) produce a wave pattern on the screen, compared to the case when the other slit is closed, and no wave-like result is produced?
