Quantum mechanics was born out of the limitations of Einstein's theories of Relativity. Einstein admits his theories break down with "entanglement", or the implicit mirroring of particles regardless of either's location. “Spooky action at a distance” is how he famously describes it.
"Schrödinger's cat" is a thought experiment that illustrates a paradox of quantum superposition. In the thought experiment, a hypothetical cat may be considered simultaneously both alive and dead, while it is unobserved in a closed box, as a result of its fate being linked to a random subatomic event that may or may not occur.
While interesting in-and-of-itself, the paradox of the dual-state cat (alive or dead) is further enriched with the so-called "Double-slit" or "Gold-slit" experiment. In short, this experiment proves that an observer is necessary for a state to be determined. This implies that consciousness itself creates physical reality. In contemporary discussion this phenomenon is thought of as wave-to-particle collapse. The observation of a wave is what transforms the wave itself into a particle, giving it a definitive place and time. Until observed, the particle exists in infinity.
And now, the tech... Quantum Chronometers (Clocks)

"A broken clock is right twice a day."
Quantum clocks as a very simple, binary mechanism. Imagine an analogue clock on your wall. You can imagine all of the numbers on the clock and their binary counterpoints -- 12 o'clock is in direct opposition to 6 o'clock. 9 o'clock is in direct opposition to 3 o'clock.
This is the way you ask quantum clocks for a calculation - remember, it works in absolute binaries:
Q: Is it 12 o'clock?
A: No
Then it's 6 o'clock.
Q: Is it 3 o'clock?
A: No
Then it's 9 o'clock.
This sounds oversimplified but remember, all tech is built on simple binary - 0 and 1. If you ask the computer enough questions, you determine what the time is through the process of elimination. Rather than using compute, you're using absolutes. This is a revolution in processing power.
Controlling the Future
Quantum mechanics works in absolute binaries -- if not "this", then "that". Well, what if we force "this"? It means "that" can never happen. We call this "quantum interference".
Remember the double-slit experiment -- we can force wave collapse by simply observing the phenomenon. So if you don't want "that" to happen, force "this" to happen by observing it. You just changed reality with your consciousness!!!
Quantum calculation can be viewed as a complex multi-particle quantum interference involving many computational paths through a computing device. The art of quantum computation is to shape quantum interference, through a sequence of computational steps, enhancing probabilities of correct outputs and suppressing possibilities of the wrong ones.
The way quantum clocks work is by taking advantage of this "flaw" -- the observer influencing the observed.
We know qubits are probability clouds when unobserved. that means they are in multiple states (all states) at the same time. We know we can get a "save" state by observing the phenomena.
This is how you control the future.
Quantum computing is fascinating because it utilizes the universe's "backdoors" to guide outcomes. While quantum computers are typically much more powerful than classic compute, the innovation is not in the power so much as the method.
This isn't sci-fi, friends -- it's already in action.
The algorithm always returns yes when N is prime, and the probability it turns yes when N is not prime is E, where E is never greater than half (independently - each time you run the algo).

Quantum Entanglement
When qubits A/B are entangled (Alice and Bob), their states depend on each other. Here's a simple example, choose any one:
x = y
-x = -y
x = -y
y = -x
Both sides of the equation must always remain equal, regardless of how closely (physically) the qubits reside in relation to each other. If I entangle Alice and Bob's qubits on earth, then send Bob and his qubit to space, Alice can still change the state of Bob's qubit by changing the state of her own. They are non-temporally entangled.
