Free will, defined as autonomous decision-making partially influenced/affected by the external environment, does exist.
Now 'autonomous' = determined by the agent, i.e. the decision to have pizza today is determined by something in you, not fully determined externally, but that something is likely not your conscious experience.
In that sense, free will does not exist.
But that does *not* mean that everything you do is predictable because P!=NP. Even God, if s/he exists, does not yet know what you will do tomorrow, s/he's waiting to find out.
So: you are not free, but you are not bound to something either.
