This is the first time I’ve actually understood that concept. Thanks !

Thanks for this, I’ve never heard an explanation that made sense before

"I can alter the state of this particle just by looking at it!" *blasts it with laser beams*

Yep! “Looking at” means nothing. “Entangled with” is more accurate.

My favorite quote from Futurama: “No fair! You changed the outcome by measuring it!”

Thats why I don't understand what's so wild about the double slit experiment. It's not that the photons behave differently when we're "looking at them". They behave differently when we measure them by making them interact with OTHER things! So why is that so weird? 🤔

It's like playing dodgeball in the dark. You find the player by hearing the ball bounce off them, but they are no longer in play because you hit them with the ball.

I have a master's in mechanical engineering, and I follow a lot of physicists. I've enjoyed the double-slit experiment for a long time, but I've never heard this clear of an explanation.

... oh my god, this makes so much more sense, I thought it was some sort of unknowable semi-lovecraftian thing. somehow. "the universe isn't what we thought it was at all, somehow things know when we're watching, science stopped making sense." (and I just tried not to think about it.) thank you

I feel silly for not knowing this, but I'm glad I understand it better now! Thanks!

So, the tree does make a sound in the forest even if no one hears it 🤔

I consumed so much content about this subject and yet somehow never knew this 🙏

I'd compare it to like measuring the depth of water by sticking a ruler in it. That's going to displace a little bit of water and affect the outcome result. "Observer" just means "the thing measuring" here.

My god thank you, FINALLY someone talks about this correctly. Great job

Holy hell. Thank you so much. The observation thing always felt like magic and I hate magic.

You have single handedly ruined my belief that we had control over quantum phenomena. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

Way to raise the bar dude. The whole treating physics like astrology is reslly getting stretched

Robert the Banned :
Thank you for this. How something could change with us looking at it, just never sat right with me. it’s not observation. It’s measurement that changes it.

Dex…. Thank you for bringing this to people’s attention. So much misinformation.

down to marx girl :
i get it in THEORY (kind of?) and I’m gonna mess up terminology I’m sure: but how do we know it changed due to interaction/observation if we don’t know it’s there until it “changes”? Like, do we know its initial state somehow without observation so that we can understand that it “changed”?
