Quantum teleportation represents one of the most profound achievements in modern physics—not as science fiction imagines it, but as a revolutionary information transfer protocol that challenges our understanding of reality itself. Recent breakthroughs in 2024-2025 have demonstrated quantum teleportation over existing internet infrastructure and achieved near-perfect fidelity despite environmental noise, moving the technology from laboratory curiosity to practical application. However, the extrapolation from teleporting photons to teleporting consciousness raises questions that intersect physics, biology, philosophy, and ethics in unprecedented ways.
