David Butler’s videos are works of educational art. The pace, the soundtrack, the presentation are all fantastic. It’s always a treat when he releases one.

The polarization explanation is far more intuitive and reasonable than most explanations I’ve seen.

Sir, you make my day every day. You are the best.

Sings "he's better than all the rest"

I have been referencing your video books in many essays I wrote in the college . These video books really helped me to understand what is really happening and why. This video answered so many questions I've had about quantum entanglement, all the overhyped news and articles now can rest in piece as someone finally explained one of the most difficult theory in clear, unbiased and visually flawless way - Thank you so much!!!

Upon seeing a new David Butler 46 min upload I stood up and started dancing.

I think I understood bits of this which is a first for me !...cheers.

Yes, a new video from David. School is in!

What a way to brighten a day. A brand new video from David!

Whoever your children are, they are so fortunate to have you as their father.

Thank you, David.

Thank you so much. :)

Your exposition is so clear. Simple, direct, minimal sufficient. Exemplary.

You're giving humanity a spark about Nature. Thank you! You will be remembered for next generations

Thanks for this David, super informative. Fantastic music choice as well!

When I watch old videos of professors explaining things like electromagnetism in black and white I feel immense admiration and appreciation for what those people did in what I perceive as an earlier time. I can’t help but believe/hope that my grand children might watch David Butler and feel the same way.

I can't wait to find some quiet time to enjoy this chapter! I heard in the first minute that you are also covering various interpretations, touching on Bell's inequality as well - I wonder if you stumbled upon Sabine Hossenfellder's video about super determinism (it somewhat made me think twice about hidden variables). However, regardless whether you touched on the (somewhat sad) super determinism premise or not, I am sure I will 100% enjoy the episode at least several times. Thank you so much for taking the time to continue this series!

Thanks once again David, I will get great pleasure watching this several times over the next week.

This channel has t he best explanations. Thankyou for making these videos.

YES, These are my favorite videos, although i've always love all of your videos over the years, these are my favorite, and my 2nd favorite is the "how far away is it" videos and then everything else :)

The man, The legend….David Butler!

Great video as always. I like the simplicity of the demystification of the wrong interpretations of entanglement and claims that "information seems to be transmitted faster than light / breaking causality" which were confusions the quantum theory didn't need. I also understand better why quantum computers are so interesting. I had known the qbit was able to represent more states but never realized its exponential nature. It's really amazing to see humanity being at the doorstep of leveraging such fundamental laws of the universe in real world applications. When we say "adding a qbit doubles the number of classical bits the entangled whole can represent", I assume here we're not implying the entire system and all its qbits are part of a single entanglement system (I thought entanglement was only between 2 particules)? Now I need to understand better how n qbits can represent 2^n states and what the coefficient amplitudes refer to. I believe the video gives enough pointers I need to follow. I hope I'll be able to wrap my poor head around that. Thanks!

Yes! Another video. Thank you David. I appreciate the work you put into these videos.

So glad to see you produce a video

Thank you again for the joy and wonder you bring with your videos, they are truly works of art!

I like that pilot wave theory is compatible with Bell’s theorem. Is pilot wave theory still of interest or has it been discarded for some reason?

There are some that think this is a better interpretation, but not much in the way of experiments to demonstrate its validity.

This topic is so interesting! And every new video is amazing. Thank you for the work and knowledge you put into this series.

Your videos are outstanding. I stumbled across your channel after watching all of the Richard Feynman lectures. I would just like to say "thank you".

David, I studied engineering and have always wished I had studied more physics. After watching your videos I have learned nearly all the physics and astronomy I wanted to learn, at essentially no cost and a fraction of the time a college program would have taken. The words incredible and awesome are way overused these days, but in the case of your videos I think they are the only words to describe them. I can't imagine the amount of time and effort you devoted to producing them. I will rewatch them to enjoy the content and your scholarly delivery. Thanks for your efforts, and I hope you continue to produce more videos.

You are bringing knowledge to at least this one fairly ignorant mind, and may I say it is a beautiful thing. Thank you for the clarity and relatability. And your voice is another point of gratitude. And the selection of music. I am a fan.

Thank you for your contribution to science.

This is incredible, thank you so damn much for transferring this for all to see.

I think your water wave entanglement explanation is perfect. I have been trying to explain this whole entangled pair across the universe that people use only works within the coherence length of the function.

I guess i love you David, because you make me learn to things i exactly want to learn.

Thank you for making quantum entanglement seem less woo-woo, less spooky...

You're one of the best teachers ever but I feel like I'm in trigonometry for the first time, this stuff just does not register in my head. Every other video you made I understand wholeheartedly but this one just goes right over my head. Not your fault whatsoever lol.

Great video as always. The error-correcting aspect of QC is going to be a doozie to get a hold on.

Regarding the Quantum Eraser what do you think of Sean Carrol's critique of the Quantum Eraser? I'll paste in the url after this comment in case youtube deletes urls.

Thank you for doing what you do.

thank you Dr Butler. when i was studying QM 101, I didn't know what I'm studying.

Looking forward for your review of the James Webb images.

Hope your well Mr. Butler. We're waiting patiently about the Webb

mr granpa i cant show how happy i am. the best teacher i ever had. HBO NETFLIX pls make a documentry with david butler

This video perfectly explains how my doppelganger is effecting my bank balance..

Mr. Dear granpa David. i check your channel everyday so i can catch your video. PLEASE open a donation accounts that we can support you, so you can upload much faster with a team helping you and we can benefit it all. you are the most pro underrated science channel and so far so good i learned alot from you and your videos. i realized now that The understanding of nature made me more comfortable somehow. i appreciate your work.

basically it will be a long while before a quantum computer is feasible, i am willing to bet they can develop cold fusion before this, but according to money pits, this can be the future.

way better than the Ring of Power.... Thank you Sir David Butler.

Welcome back.

We love you Mr Butler

Thank you!

Thank You.

There is “no such spooky action at distance” if we consider subuniverse, another dimension or another universe (whatever they are) that are lack of ” t” and “3ds”. As far as I see there is at least two more different universes. And the relation is just like traveling transverse waves. They pass through each other without interacting. Everything is fine to me.

Question: if we change the distances between the polarizing filters (also with values close to the wavelength of light) there are any changes in the effects? Great job, i watch with pleasure.

I took a look and it is beyond the scope of the video. Think of it as an area of research for you to pursue.

The Venn diagram doesn't fit Bell's inequality. A plus B is not a subset of B not C or A not C. To get a not C, you have to send a photon to C. Otherwise you don't know that it's not C. Furthermore, A plus C is not a subset of A not B and so on. All Bell's inequality tells us is that if the angles are theta and 2theta, A not B = B not C < A not C.

Like most cat owners Schrodinger both hated and didn't hate his Cat.

Please do a video on the new James Webb images

Waited so long

I love this

Thank you for doing this. Here are some suggestions for how I think I (and perhaps some others) will get more out of these: 1) Drop the music, it is distracting. People will react differently to background music; I find I am wanting to listen to the music more than your voice. 2) Pedagogy is not served by terseness. As the old saying goes (in military briefs): indicate to the person what they are about to hear, then tell them what you want them to know, then tell them what they just heard. For example, in the entanglement section you begin with the water waves then move to the coins, but you didn't emphasize that what we are going to see initially are illustrations of _classical_ physics. Repetition is good.

I for one love the music. Great that there are options for both types. As for your other point i wholly agree.

Probability is a hidden variable because occurrence is variable. Waves are non-local... the probability of the universe “being” is 1, and that probability is non-divisible, i.e. it’s non-local. “Locality” is the issue. Non-local superdeterminism is where it is.

for bells inequality, why wouldn't it work to just look at B not C, and determine that the wrong percentage of photons are getting through C for there to be hidden varibles? I've missed something for sure 🙈

I simplify Schrödinger's cat with a tossed coin. Toss a coin and then cover it with something without looking if it's heads or tails. Both states will continue to exist at the same time forever unless you take a look.

At about 1:35 you say " hidden variables cannot exist as a consequence of Bell's theorem" Hidden variables can exist if they are non local. Bell's theorem is only about local hidden variables.

So it's safe to say. any interpretation in qp that seems weird, has been interpreted wrong. Right.

Spooky Action 👻 At a distance!! 🌜🌏⭐

This was very good up until around Bells Inequality :/ - the explanation wasn’t particularly easy to follow.

I appreciate the effort you put into this, but in a number of instances you seem to put out a fact with a notion "because it's obvious, right?" One example is the quantum computer example at the end. It would have immensely helped to see an example of an actual computation done with it. I still don't see how the quantum world dominated by probilities maps to solving actual computational problems.

Good comment. I was working on providing an example and found that it would take an additional 40 minutes. I might, at some point, explain quantum computing from superposition to programming to problems solved. But How Old Is Life is next after upgrading 'How Fast' to 4k.

Release the kraken

I realize there is no cat. I instead like to think every atomic particle is a cat.

Bohr didn't propose anything about the wave nature of reality, nor Einstein not accept it. Bohr pretty much mixed philosophy with ...quantum statistics while Einstein was just proposing that you don't know a lot of things on the quantum level to propose a complete theory and mechanism. And it is true. IF you know the exact position every particle was birthed you could maybe derive the exact point on the screen on the double slit it would land? He just said, you can use data to predict with accuracy but other than that, what is the real mechanism under there? And nobody can say up to this day which really is. People imagine many worlds (i.e. just ignore the collapse...bullshit but anyway) or that everything is predetermined anyway. OR that particles are surfing waves (check out walker droplets and matrix mechanics), or undergrid communications ignoring gravity and time whatsoever etc... About entanglement Einstein would not have any faster than light communication whatsoever, anywhere so... By the way De-Broglie-Bohm mechanics are closer to the animation in this video than anything, to me at least.

Hi 👋****8888****

If you agree, for a few moments, that space is VIRTUAL, then the smallest area would be the Planck area - there is nothing defined below that. So there are no "points" of matter. You cannot go below 1 pixel, so to speak. So trying to send 1 pixel through a hole smaller than a pixel doesn't work in one go. The pixel has to wave itself through. Easy. Done. PS I am so bored with the history of physics in ALL these explanations of Quantum stuff. If only you could accept the virtual nature of the Cosmos, then its damn easy.. Susskind's holograph hypothesis is on kinda the right track, except he can't flesh it out enough. But the mathematics version of the Cosmos doesnt work at infinities or very small lengths - its such a joke that mathematics "thinks" time and space and forces are infinitely divisible, that's where math goes very very very wrong.

I'm not comfortable with this in the slightest

Stupidities, stupidities...

Huh? Lol

Thank you!
