Albert Einstein strongly disagreed with Niels Bohr when it came to Bohr’s interpretation of quantum mechanics. Quantum entanglement settled the argument once and for all.

Einstein argued that elementary particles maintained their intrinsic values whether they were being observed or not. Bohr believed that in observing such particles we collapsed a wave function of probabilities. He asserted that it is only when these wave functions collapse that one of many probabilities is chosen and the particles take on distinct values. Quantum entanglement, John Stewart Bell and Alain Aspect eventually proved that Bohr was correct.

Its... weirder than that. The issue is that the measurement of the particle changes it - and changes the entangled particle.

Aside: Einstein (et. al.) wrote such a post (or a series of papers) as part of the Bohr–Einstein debates. Einstein was later proven to be wrong.

Some good related learnings:

The Concept of Mass - with Jim Baggott (just watched this yesterday and it's reeeaalllyy good although basic): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfHjzomqbZc

Quantum Entanglement and the Great Bohr-Einstein Debate | Space Time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tafGL02EUOA

Measure for Measure: Quantum Physics and Reality (kinda old but still good): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdqC2bVLesQ

Would recommend this order.

For anyone interested, there is a great video by the PBS space time channel explaining quantum entanglement here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tafGL02EUOA

The thing is, although the quantum state of the photom collapses instantaneously on both entangled photons, we can't manipulate at which state the photon will collapse, and so, we can't really send information using quantum entanglement.

We can't also confirm the entanglement until we can compare both measurement results or else we could send information from the future as in the quantum eraser experiment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Uzytrooz44
