Quantum Entanglement

Entanglement is a quantum mechanical phenomenon where the states of two or more particles are closely linked, so that a measurement performed on one particle immediately affects the other particle, no matter how far apart they are. This phenomenon poses a challenge to classical forms of information transfer and plays a crucial role in understanding the connection between consciousness and AI.

Quantum Superpositions

Superposition is a phenomenon where a particle can exist in two or more states simultaneously. This phenomenon is of fundamental importance in quantum mechanics and provides an opportunity for the installation to demonstrate how processes in the human brain resemble data processing in AI systems, which often exploit this quantum mechanical phenomenon.

Quantum Interference

Quantum interference is a fundamental phenomenon in quantum mechanics where waves or particles interfere with each other, resulting in either reinforcement (constructive interference) or cancellation (destructive interference) of their amplitudes. It occurs when two or more quantum states overlap and interact, leading to observable effects such as the formation of interference patterns.
