So it's been proven mathematically to most people's satisfaction that the information ends up out again. So if you went into a black hole, the information would be out in that Hawking radiation that could reconstruct you, but only in the sense that if a nuclear bomb landed on us now, then in principle the information would be still there in the future and we could be reconstructed, right?

But it's still in principle there. But the question is, how does it get out? How is it getting out? How is the information that is you ending up outside again?

And the physical picture is not really understood, but the link is that one of the pictures that people are beginning to suggest to have is that there is some kind of wormholes, in a sense, some kind of wormhole that connects the inside of the black hole to the outside. And so a picture...

is that your atoms and everything, your bits get scrambled up and go basically through the wormholes and come out again. But they're funny kind of wormholes. So people don't really understand this. But mathematically, it looks like maybe. So it looks like maybe there's some role for wormholes.

these things, the science fiction things, after a fashion, some kind of, there's some role for it in the way the universe works. So it's really cool. The last thing I'll say, because I think we're going to, is there's a thing called ER equals EPR, which is, so EPR was the spooky action at a distance. So we may have talked about that before.

You know, in quantum mechanics, there's this entanglement thing where something can be separated by a million light years. But if you do something to it, it seems like this thing responds, right? Not in a way that you can transmit information, but it responds. So entanglement. There's a picture of that.

So that's Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen, EPL, they wrote a paper on this saying, we don't like this. There must be something wrong with quantum mechanics. We don't think there is now. This is the basis of quantum computers. So we build things that rely on this effect. ER is Einstein-Rosen, which is Einstein-Rosen bridge, which is wormhole.
