Ron Garrett presenta en esta conferencia una interpretación alternativa a la de Copenhague de la Teoría Cuántica. Esta nueva interpretación se basa en la denominada Teoría Cuántica de la Información (QIT, Quantum Information Theory. El paper correspondiente se puede descargar aquí.

The Quantum Conspiracy: What Popularizers of QM Don't Want You to Know
This paper attempts to dispel some of the “essential mystery” of quantum mechanics (QM) by describing some recent (as of 2001) results in quantum information theory at a level accessible to the layman. The discussion is motivated by first showing how informal accounts of QM’s mysteries (specifically, entanglement and quantum erasers) lead to a contradiction of relativity. The apparent contradiction is r esolved with an elementary mathematical analysis. Finally, I engage in wild philosophical speculation in order to allay fears that a better understanding of QM runs the risk of taking all of the fun out of it.
