Evaluating Prompt Effectiveness for Text Transformation

A user wants to transform the 'Original Text' below to make it both significantly shorter and easier for a general audience to understand. They use a Large Language Model to generate two possible versions, 'Output A' and 'Output B'.

Original Text: "The investigation of quantum entanglement in multipartite systems reveals non-local correlations that defy classical intuition, necessitating a formalistic approach grounded in Hilbert space tensor products. Experimental verification often involves Bell-inequality tests, which statistically differentiate between quantum mechanical predictions and the constraints imposed by local hidden-variable theories."

Output A: "Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon where multiple tiny particles are linked together in a special way. Even if they are far apart, what happens to one instantly affects the others. This connection is different from anything we see in our everyday world. To understand it, scientists use a special kind of math. To prove this is real, they do experiments that show the predictions of quantum mechanics are correct and that older ideas about how the universe works at a small scale are wrong."

Output B: "Quantum entanglement links particles so they instantly affect each other, no matter the distance. This strange connection, which defies normal logic, is proven by experiments that show quantum physics' predictions are correct over older theories."

Which output (A or B) more successfully achieves the user's combined goal? Justify your choice by explaining which of the two outputs was likely generated by the prompt 'Condense and simplify this text.'
