I hav= downloaded The Improvement of the Mind and am reading. I feel my mind imp=oving already ;-) proposing The conversation and your ideas fit in closely with work I've been doi=g and am to do. Maybe this is not surprising because we've been ta=king about these topics for years. I've been traveling around (Santa=Fe, now in San Francisco, soon to be in Banff) and so have had time to think</=iv> more about what we discussed. Here is a succinct summary of my own take. I know yours is some=hat different. Information is a fundamental quantity, measured in bits. Information can be random, like the typical string of bits one gets by flipping a coin 0101110110101000011 (I just flipped a coin and let heads = 1 and tails = 0), or it can be ordered, like the bit string 0000000000000000. There is a technical definition of order and randomness: a bit string<=div> is ordered if there is a succinctly describable method, e.g., a short computer program, for producing it. By contrast, a string is random if the shortest program for producing it is the same length as the string itself. For example, the string consisting of a billion 0's can be produced by a short program: Print '0' 1049 times. By contrast, the shortest program to produce the string 0101110110101000011 is something like: Print 0101110110101000011. This way of defining order/randomness is called algorithmic information. The interesting thing about algorithmic information is that the short program can be hard to find. A string can look very random and still have a short program. For example, the first billion bits of pi, written in binary, have a short program, but if I just give you those bits, they would look statistically random. This means that so far as we or any other information processing system is concerned, order/randomness is subjective: some information<=div> can be ordered and non-random, but we may not be able to recognize the underlying order, so we treat it as random. That is, the ord=r is cryptic: we don't know how to decode it. This cryptici=y is the key feature for looking at both physical systems and human/social<=div> systems. 5 EFTA_R1_01557095 EFTA02454952 Physical systems: In physical systems such as a gas of molec=les, entropy is the amount of information that is required to describe the underlying<=div> motions of those molecules. Because the molecules are bou=cing off each other in an essentially random way, entropy is assumed to be random information. Heat is energy that is encumbered by entro=y/randomness. The randomness makes it harder to take advantage of that energy. By contrast, free energy is energy where t=e information required to describe how that energy is arranged is ordered, not random. Free energy is energy we can take advantage of. Now comes the kicker: suppose that a syste= is actually ordered, but that order is cryptic. If we can't decipher =he order, we can't take advantage of it. So whether energy is free or not depends o= our ability to detect its underlying order. That is, the availability=of energy depends on the computationall/decrypting ability of whatever system (molecule, microbe, human) is trying to take advantage of that energy. Social/human interactions: Human interactions are about the exchange =f information, plus other stuff (goods, services, money, etc.►. Everything th=t is exchanged brings with it the information that describes what is exchanged, what can be done with it, etc. So for example,=a US Treasury bond comes with the specification of its price and its fut=re interest payments. A complex option comes with the speci=ication of what can be bought and sold when. As a result, human interactions are awash =n information. Different people are capable of decoding/decyphering that information in differe=t ways. The ability to detect a pattern or order in information t=anslates into the ability to take advantage of a social situation. =For example, the efficient market hypothesis states that fluctuations in the prices=/div> of a given stock should be essentially random. But if you happe= to possess some information that allows you to predice the future fluctua=ions of the stock, then you can make money. Similarly, to play into you ideas about de=eption, when two actors enter into a transaction, each presents the other with informat=on about their obligations under the transaction. Each actor=looks at that information and judges whether the transaction will turn out to their own advantage. But because each actor perceives di=ferent patterns in the information, they can come up with different evaluatio=s of the future worth of the transaction. 6 EFTA_R1_01557096 EFTA02454953 Deception arises because one actor may hid= a pattern in the revealed information, a pattern that the other actor doesn't perceive,=/div> but that makes the transaction more advantageous to the first actor.</=iv> I've been told that this is called, doing business.
