Alien Force, Ultimate Alien — I lived for that green Omnitrix glow.
But my favorite character?
Not Ben.
Not Gwen.
Kevin Levin.
The guy could absorb anything — metal, rock, diamond — he was like a walking GPU with a bad-boy attitude.
So naturally, when I first heard about quantum computing, my first thought was:
“If Kevin can absorb matter, maybe qubits absorb probability? Or... something?”
Well, turns out quantum computing is almost as alien as Chromastone and makes classical bits look like outdated Plumber tech.
In classic computing, bits are simple creatures.
They’re either a 0
or a 1
.
No drama. No quantum tantrums.
Just like Ben in Season 1 — always flipping between two forms: human and Heatblast.
But qubits?
Oh, they’re the Kevin Levins of the digital world.
They don’t choose between 0
and 1
— they say:
“Why not both?”
A qubit can be in superposition — a fancy word for:
"I'm simultaneously 0 and 1 until you look at me, then I pick a side and gaslight you into thinking I was always that."
In Ben 10 terms:
Imagine Ben morphs into both Swampfire and Humungousaur at the same time...
but only chooses one after he’s punched a villain.
That’s superposition.
Now, let’s talk entanglement.
Not the Gwen–Kevin love story (although, wow, that was powerful),
but the quantum kind.
When two qubits become entangled, their states become linked — no matter how far apart they are.
Change one, and the other changes instantly — like telepathy, but nerdier.
Example:
Gwen casts a spell on Kevin in Bellwood, and he reacts immediately in the Null Void.
That’s quantum entanglement.
Einstein called it:
"Spooky action at a distance."
(Which, honestly, sounds like the subtitle of a Ben 10 vs Ghostfreak crossover.)
Quantum computers use qubits to explore multiple possibilities at once — like a massive, interdimensional Omnitrix that tests every alien form in parallel before choosing the most effective one.
This makes them amazing at:
BUT — quantum computers are also fragile, error-prone, and require environments colder than Kevin’s attitude in Season 2.
We're still in the Wildvine baby steps of quantum tech.
If Kevin Levin were a qubit, he’d be:
Quantum computing is weird, powerful, and totally alien —
and that’s exactly why it fits the Object Oriented Teens™ vibe.
We like our tech:
We don’t just explain tech.
We remix it with memes, merch, and moments that actually make you feel like an alien coder.
Code. Create. Conquer.
