How a Tardigrade “Micro Animal” Became Quantum Entangled with Superconducting Qubit
Hey, so–we cooled your boyfriend down to a hundredth of a kelvin above absolute zero. Yeah, it was so cold that all of the chemical reactions in his body ceased. Sorry. We, uh, yeah, we used him as a dielectric material in a tiny qubit. And then we quantum-entangled him with another qubit, just to see if we could. Sorry. Yeah, anyway, we thawed him out after two weeks and apparently he’s doing fine now. Didn’t really teach us anything about how quantum processes work in biological systems, but it sure was, uh, cool. If you’ll pardon the pun.
He never asked for this.
