No, QM is a mathematical structure
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_formulation_of_quantum_mechanics>.
And according to the instrumentalist interpretation
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpretations_of_quantum_mechanics#Instrumentalist_interpretation>
the rest is indeed just pseudo-philosophy aka bullshit.
