I have seen the results of the experiments. Would you believe protons diffracting with themselves in the classic double slit interference experiment.
This implies the proton went through both slits ie it was some sort of wave function.
It gets more scary as it has now been done with Buckyballs ie C60 or 60 Carbon atoms. When they do it with a lab rat I will start to believe in the Matrix!
As I said just because something works locally and this includes the observer that does not mean this is how things behave when you are not looking!
If we ever get qbit computers into reality it is even scarier as a 40 qbit computer supposedly can describe the Universe. I still maintain that the Universe is a quantum computer and the human brain derives its complexity or conciousness from this inherent capability as it also derives its computational power from some deeply embedded quantum states. What are all these fibrils that seem to do nothing doing inside our brains. Most physicists will tell you that low temperatures are needed to have quantum coherence. I vaguely remember chemists saying the same thing until biological enzymes were finally discovered that worked at body temperatures!.
The other scary thing is that we do not control ourselves. There is a ghost in our machinery that really runs things. We just think it was what we wanted to do.
It is for the younger ones to work all this out.
