Fascinating. And the fact that it's entanglement makes it information and thus not subject to space/time constraints.

- monktastic1 9y agoDepends on what precisely you mean by that. It can allow you to exhibit correlations that are hard to explain within a classical framework, yes. But that requires very precise control over the system, so has no practical import most of the time. Things are being entangled pretty much nonstop around you all the time. BTW, I added a paragraph to my answer above.
- EGreg 9y agoI think that basically the observer is considered "entangled" with a phenomenon after they have interacted with it. That's all. The observer can be anything. You are you, so by the time information comes to you, you've become entangled. I find this interpretation to be mostly wordplay. After all how can something be "real" if you can never observe it or detect it? It's sort of saying the theoretical construct "those other worlds" are real, but in what sense? Bohmian mechanics makes way more sense to me.
- goatlover 9y agoDo we ever observe or detect the larger universe outside our light cone? Yet astronomers say it exists. What about other minds? Do you ever observer/detect someone else's experiences, thoughts, feelings? Or just their behavior from which you infer a mind?
