And Niels Bohr said, no, what you see is what you get.

You know, like this is reality in a completely different way.

And in fact, there is no classical physics.

It's just an approximation to quantum mechanics, which is the currently adopted view.

And Einstein resisted that, and he actually wrote a paper between 1935 and 1940 that argued that quantum mechanics doesn't have spooky action at a distance.

And he was wrong.

The Nobel Prize was awarded.

He also was wrong on two other things.

He said black holes don't exist, gravitational waves do not exist.

Just shows you that people working at the frontiers make mistakes.

But those people that corrected Einstein got the Nobel Prize over the past decade in all three issues.

So coming back, you know, Niels Bohr was right, but we still don't understand.

And, you know, most of those decades of physics confirmed quantum mechanics to exquisite the precision, meaning we can calculate things.

but we don't understand.

And it brought the phrase, shut up and calculate.

Like if you ask too many questions, you know, just like you tell a kid, don't ask so many questions, just use this as a way to predict things.

And you will get agreement with experiments, which has been true, but there is something we are missing.

Now, I wouldn't be surprised if what we are missing has to do with gravity.

That because we have quantum mechanics without gravity,

we have this distorted view about how quantum mechanics operates and we don't fully understand it you know a system can be very big and if you affect if you do something to part of the quantum system the other part knows immediately faster than light yeah and so that's the spooky action at the distance and quantum entanglement is come derived from that and we don't understand it perhaps because we don't have quantum gravity understanding and
