Beam me UP!
A quantum of Ping!...................
They will experiment sending rhesus monkeys first.
Then democrats, next Canadians before trying people.
Nope - the same BSOD everywhere and always.
So, does this mean air-gapping is loosing it’s cache’?
I don’t think this qualifies as “teleportation”. It is moving a “state” but not the thing itself. This is largely beyond me, though.
Call Scotty!
Arthur C. Clarke’s “Three Laws”:
“1. When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
2. The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
3. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”
Nothing important was harmed during testing then ;-)
Quantum level events, natural or invoked by human engineered events, are just quantum level events, with no imperial scientific evidence they are translatable/analogous to events that could happen at the human molecular level. No, the science is not mature enough for being able to say “beam me up Scottie”; that is likely eons away.
“Beam me up Scottie” would require the scientific ability to break down real time molecular biological life into quantum bits that collectively and accurately reflects that biological life at the quantum level, without error or deviation possible. A trick that will require prevention of quantum level events with quantum bits that naturally do no always hold a given state.
Then that quantum data stream would have to be held in and moved in an energy stream containing that unbroken quantum data, with a third process that can exactly transcribe the quantum data back to its original configuration in the biological life it was composed from.
The means for those processes are not within ANY current or near human scientific knowledge and ability.
1) How verifiable is this?
2) How much grant money does this get just for claiming it happened?
Same. I don’t get the ‘teleportation’ vs. just having two quantum-entangled particles that have been separated, where a change in state of one can be seen in the other.
I’d love to know how far apart these ‘entangled particles’ can be for this to work. Is the reliability higher if closer? ...beyond me, I just assume distance matters - if not, it opens up a new world of possibilities.
I have no problem with a lot of quantum level research, as long term it will possibly help us understand matter and energy better than we do, and very long term make possible devices that use quantum level events for microscopically and massively faster communication and storage of communicated INFORMATION that begins as human created information and not as biological life. Our far and away descendants in some far off human generations MIGHT be able to take quantum level knowledge beyond that. We will never see it.
Nonsense!
Teleportation requires the physical disassembly of a physical object at one location and reassembly at another location...
Quantum tunneling of a state from one cubit to another is long-distance quantum tunneling, a very exciting experimental outcome...
I can’t quite get my head around all this quantum computer stuff, but I’ve bought stocks (actually options) in several fledgling quantum computer companies, just in case there really is something to it.
I also got an ETF that focuses on quantum computing companies - it’s QTUM in case anybody is interested.
I did this several months ago and so far they’ve done pretty good!
Make sure no ion storms are present and compensate the transporter if any happen.
