entanglement, perhaps the most nonclassical manifestation of quantum mechanics, two or more quantum players can accomplish a distributed task with no need for communication whatsoever, which would be an impossible feat for classical players. Einstein, Bohr, Bell, Kochen and Specker were all concerned with hidden variables (“elements of reality”). Pseudo-telepathy also deals with this issue: it provides alternate versions of Bell’s argument against local realistic theories. But it is more than just that. Pseudo-telepathy games often provide a more concise and convincing argument than those along the lines of Bell. They may also prove useful in devising loophole-free experimental tests to rule out local realistic descriptions of the physical world [3].
Inspired by the metaphor of 'Quantum Entanglement,' the conference “Entanglement at the Human Scale” held on February 17-20, 2000 by the University for Humanist Studies, Utrecht, were about people as histories, information, emotions that interact and have memories of past and projections of future intentions. More recently Dean Radin has done extensive work on the idea of Human Entanglement. He describes experiments that shown a non-local connection between human beings when they ‘think’ of each other [4].
Piotrowski and Sladkowski have stated what they called the Quantum anthropic principle: even if at earlier stages of civilization markets were governed by classical laws, the incomparable efficiency of quantum algorithms in conveying comparative advantage should result in market evolution such that quantum behaviors will prevail over classical ones. Since nature already plays quantum games,
it would appear that humans do so also using their personal quantum computers (human brains) [5].
Bill McKelvey has found that an understanding of entanglement from quantum theory can throw useful light on the nature of ties among people and their impact on emergent order in organizations. In terms of human behavior, he explained that: a high correlation between the paired histories of people would mean they think in similar ways; a low correlation would mean they go in different directions [6].
