Abstract

Quantum theory presents a unique scenario pertaining to collapse processes. A device that measures variables incompatible with those being detected collapses randomly into one of the states defined by the measuring device. The distinction that a collapsed output is not an accurate description of reality but rather a random selection from a set of values derived from the measuring device allows us to utilize the collapse process to propose a scheme wherein a machine becomes capable of performing interpreting processes. We present herein a basic schematic of a machine that demonstrates the principle of interpretation relying on the polarization phenomenon of photons. The operation of the device is demonstrated using an ambiguous figure. We believe that building an interpreting device can contribute to the field of AI.
