    Tachyons schmackyons. The Jupiter brain is so smart
    that it runs a sim of you, which allows it to anticipate
    your every question, then sends the answers ahead of
    time so they arrive just as you formulate the question.
    You perceive instant feedback, even if the Jbrain is
    several light-hours away.

    No tachyons needed, given a sufficiently advanced
    simulation of your brain.
