Currently most people would say they have a large amount of free will. Will there be enough studies and literature published by 2050 to reduce how scientifically literate people think about the degree of Free Will.

Examples: greater understanding of how environment, neurotransmitters, genetics and more influenced thinking and choices.

I'm not sure of a good quantitative way to measure the change. But it should be large enough that it's easy to agree by comparing common viewpoints across time.
