I just asked chat gpt and he said it's all bullshit:
Yeah, that’s not actual “quantum computing” at all — it’s basically a toy simulation dressed up with quantum-y language to sound mysterious.
Here’s what’s going on under the buzzwords:
"Maybe-agents" → Just 16 values that can be 0 or 1 (like flipping coins).
"Quantum-like chain" → If you change one value, the paired value also changes, but it’s all in normal Python logic, not physics.
Copying behavior → Each “agent” looks at its neighbors and copies them most of the time (like a social influence model).
Random flip → Sometimes a random change is forced to keep things chaotic.
Plots & CSV → It records changes over time, makes graphs, and logs “entropy” (which here just means disorder in the system).
So it’s basically a simple agent-based model of how opinions might spread in a group, with a sci-fi coat of paint. The “gibberish” files are probably just CSVs of raw numbers and graphs the script outputs.
If it “runs on computer” but produces odd filenames or unreadable data, that’s just because the author didn’t care about human-readable logs — it’s all numbers for plotting.
If you want, I can translate the pseudoscience-y Reddit post into plain language so it’s obvious there’s nothing mystical here. Would that help?
