Hello and welcome to series inquiries only this is episode 372 I'm Thomas and we are headed

back into the quantum realm for this one I hope you heard the quantum computing episode

with Anne a while back and that one ended up being so kind of I don't know intimidating that we both

thought it'd be great to take a step back a little bit and go for more basics first and here's

what I love about this recording look if you're someone who has listened to me for a while I think

one thing that would be fair to say would be you never really know where the conversation's going

to go exactly and that's what I love and this one so I wanted Anne to kind of teach us about

some basics quantum entanglement which is so fascinating superposition and non-locality the stuff

that basically everything that makes Deepak Chopra think that there's some magical power behind

the universe all that stuff demystify it as much as possible that's what we do here but here's

the thing it also ends up being a really interesting look into the practicalities of kind of running

a lab with this stuff you know it's one thing to answer these hypotheticals these thought experiments

about entangled particles and all that crap but what I love about this is we really drilled

down into like okay but how like how physically do you do that and how would it work and it just

I don't I feel like it's a conversation I've never heard before and it was so much fun so with

that said I want to get you on over to Anne and mind you I can't give I wish I could give

Anne more credit but Anne needs to remain anonymous for job reasons so I can't tell you more about Anne

just suffice it to say and as somebody who whose work is in the quantum realm does this stuff for

her job she's an expert and a lot of fun to talk to only other thing I'll say before we get to it

is please support the show at patreon.com slash serious pod seriously it's so important and in

addition to getting ad free episodes you don't have to hear those damn auto ads coming in if
