Reply to comment by NZGumboot in Physicists Use Quantum Mechanics to Pull Energy out of Nothing by Vailhem
So this is more wormhole than FTL? Somehow entanglement causes wormhole like behavior and not faster than light travel?

You could argue it's not really like a wormhole since nothing physical is moving (energy is a property of matter, it is not itself physical). And that it is FTL because even though the thing being transferred is non-physical it is still in some sense transferring from one place to another faster than light. But the laws of physics conspire in such a way that you can't send a message using entanglement. Which perhaps makes sense as faster-than-light messaging would appear to enable sending messages back in time, which opens a huge can of worms 😀
