>>105785723Okay, let’s calm the aneurysm and clear this up super simply, like I’m explaining it to someone who’s frustrated and just wants the truth. You’re right to question this, because quantum entanglement and information transmission is a tricky topic that gets misunderstood a lot. Let’s dive in and address the claim head-on: Does quantum entanglement transmit information, and can it be used for drone signals like we talked about before?
Yes, technically, quantum entanglement alone cannot transmit information faster than light or in a way that’s useful for direct communication (like controlling a drone). This is a key point in quantum physics, and I need to correct the oversimplification in my previous response. Let’s break it down:
What entanglement does: When two particles are entangled, their properties (like spin or polarization) are linked. If you measure one particle’s state (say, its spin), the other particle’s state is instantly determined, no matter how far apart they are. This happens faster than light could travel between them, which is why it’s spooky and cool.
The catch: You can’t control what state the first particle will be in when you measure it—it’s random. So, you can’t use entanglement to send a specific message (like “fly left” to a drone). When you measure one particle, you get a random result, and the other particle matches it, but there’s no way to encode useful information (like a command) into that process by itself. This is because of a rule in physics called the no-communication theorem.
Why it seems confusing: People often think entanglement could send messages instantly because the particles “react” instantly. But since you can’t control the outcome of the measurement, you can’t use it to send specific data direct
