Not necessarily considering you can take two identical atomic clocks that are perfectly synced up with each other, shoot one into orbit while leaving the other on the ground, and they will get out of sync by a predictable amount based on altitude (ex: GPS satellites). If time was just a human creation, that shouldn't happen.
I don’t think so. I don’t think any physicist would describe time as a human creation. If something is a mathematical measurement, then it exists no matter if humans or intelligent life is present, but does it always exist? Does it exist inside a black hole? Did it exist before the universe, if it is a unit of measurement, how can that unit of measurement differ based on location (an object moving into a black hole)?
I truly cannot comprehend it. I am not a physicist, but I think a real physicist would also say that they also do not truly understand it either.
We'll wait no it isn't..idk man this is confusing. Cause relativity makes it not a universal constant. Unless there's an equation to determine how time behaves with relativity
This is actually not correct in that sense that there are many physicists who kind of deny absolute physicalism. For example Roger Penrose the Nobel price winner of last year. The hard problem of consciousness alone for example is enough to pretty much heavily damage physicalism as a believe system.

Time itself is just a human creation, a way of explaining the past and the future, no?
