THANK YOU. When I first saw this image my reaction was “GTFO!!!” followed by a desire to drop out and become some kind Zen monk or mystic.

Hehe, indeed. You can see other images besides this one in the paper: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41566-023-01272-3

hah, I knew the moment I saw the image that someone was going to poorly crop it, subtitle it, and spread it on social media claiming that entangled particles secretly looked like a yin yang this whole time.

Part of me wants to ignore that it's a constructed image and go on imagining entangled particles forming yin / yang images. Perhaps I can't critique the media too much for implying the same. Though the actual research seems interesting.

You can still join the monkhood if you contemplate on the image of our spiral galaxy.
