L&FP, 65f: It’s all tangled up — quantum entanglement (vs how we tend to talk loosely)

Arvin Ash poses a macro scale parallel to entanglement (while using a Stern-Gerlach apparatus):

Vid:

Ash highlights, of course, that once entangled, particles have superposed wave functions leading to inherent non locality. So, spooky action at a distance overlooks that non locality.

And as with the gloves, Alice needs to know her particle is part of an entangled pair to freely infer Bob got the other one, so to speak. Information has not evaded the speed of light limit.

Translation,* our concept of space, needs to be er, ah, uh, quantum adjusted. That was already lurking in low intensity beam interference and superposition. KF

*PS, added to show certain objectors that “translated” needs not be pernicious.

PPS, DV, quantum computing lurks here.
