Paradoxes could be resolved through the manyworlds interpretation of quantum mechanics from "summary" of Time Travel in Einstein's Universe by J. Richard Gott

In the realm of time travel and paradoxes, the concept of the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics offers a fascinating perspective. According to this interpretation, every quantum event results in the creation of multiple parallel universes, each branching off to accommodate all possible outcomes. This means that whenever a time traveler alters the past, instead of creating a paradox, they simply shift to a different parallel universe where their actions have already taken place. In this way, the consistency of cause and effect is maintained, as the timeline remains intact within each individual universe. For instance, if a time traveler were to go back in time and prevent their grandparents from meeting, this would not erase their own existence. Rather, it would lead to the creation of a new universe where they were never bor...
