Ha! 😆
I’m still processing what little bits of entanglement theory within quantum physics that I claim to understand. But here’s my takeaway so far:
1) Quantum systems are believed to be able to store, process, and transfer/translate information/data. While I don’t completely understand how, neither do I understand Boolean algebra nor machine language, but I do know that they work as information systems.
2) We know of and have studied natural biological systems that behave in much the same way as information processes.
3) We have discovered that different particles can be entangled to other very different particles (photons to atoms, molecules to electrons, etc) in so many varied combinations that we’ve only begin to scratch the surface and understand. I believe the study that you refer to here is another such instance of this bleeding edge understanding.
4) Putting the above all together, I see the next leap to be a discovery of naturally occurring quantum communication either in our bodies/brains (as the study suggests), or in the other organic systems like plants and photosynthesis, which is arguably already a quantum phenomenon. Why can’t it be the sun “talking to” the trees via some entanglement communication pathway?
From there? I don’t see us really stopping. We may find inorganic matter to be far more “alive” than we ever dreamed.
