Computation without prediction, algebra without letters, and information without data: these are all different aspects of quantum entanglement.But what can we do with this?The shape of atoms and molecules is determined by quantum dynamics that we cannot access with ordinary computers. The problem is inherently difficult because of entanglement.Computers that use quantum bits, or qubits, may one day be able to simulate these highly entangled states. These are how electrons behave in quantum chemistry. If the universe is fundamentally quantum we will be forced to re-examine the language used to discuss objective reality itself.
