The Quantum Oracle, Demystified

The qubit is not 0 or 1. It is in a relationship between states 0 and 1.

Notwithstanding, the ability to entangle two qubits is mind-blowing. We measure one qubit, and another instantly changes its state, no matter how far away it is. It’s hard to believe that anyone would not think of teleportation like in Star Trek.

Once we start working with (simulated) qubits, the superposition state comes down as a probability. Entanglement emerges as a way to manipulate these probabilities. We may not be able to see how this kind of computing could be so much faster until we come across the quantum oracle.
