Sounds like some dude came up with this ‘second law of infodynamics’ and then plucked out a bunch of examples that support his own law as if that somehow backed anything up at all. Didn’t read the paper itself but the article doesn’t do a very good job.
Infodynamics was first written about in 1941. This article does a terrible job. The paper doesn’t even discuss living in a simulation, or any implications or imply that we may be living in a simulation. This article is trash.
The pop sci article does do a bad job explaining. The paper is about how information entropy has a different time evolution than thermal entropy. I don’t totally understand information entropy so some of their findings sound a little strange to me.
