TL;DR Summary

Researchers at the University of Twente have used photons in an optical chip to demonstrate the reconciliation of quantum mechanics and thermodynamics. By observing the behavior of photons in different channels, they found that while individual channels followed the laws of thermodynamics and built up disorder, the overall system remained consistent with quantum mechanics. The experiment showcased the entanglement of subsystems and the disappearance of missing information to other subsystems, providing evidence for the resolution of the quantum paradox.
