We live in a universe that seems to be coming apart at the seams. We shouldn’t be surprised at this. After all, the scientific principle of entropy tells us that everything is winding down—stars burn out, structures crumble, memories fade. That’s the prevailing...

In this post, I introduce Claude Shannon, the "father of information theory." His work revolutionized how we understand communication, enabling everything from digital technology to modern AI. Learn about Shannon’s contributions, including data quantification, error-correction, and how his concept of entropy reshaped information theory—forming the foundation of today’s communications systems and artificial intelligence.

In this series, I dive into the science and philosophy of information, exploring its profound role in the universe. Information, more fundamental than matter or energy, may underlie everything from cosmic evolution to human consciousness. I’ll challenge how we understand information, asking questions about its meaning, existence, and connection to reality itself.
