Coding, information theory and compression constitute the backbone of modern digital communications and data storage. Grounded in Shannon’s seminal work, information theory quantifies the ...

Is your code subject to the effects of entropy? Does it tend to devolve into a “big ball of mud?” According to experts “the most frequently deployed software architecture” is just a big ball of mud, a ...

The second law of thermodynamics is one of those puzzling laws of nature that simply emerges from the fundamental rules. It says that entropy, a measure of disorder in the Universe, must always ...

Recently, when we were talking about why time only moves forward, we got into talking about the Second Law of Thermodynamics. It says that disorder, otherwise known as entropy, must always increase.

Aside from privacy and security, hallucination and the spread of misinformation are among the biggest deterrents preventing AI from advancing. A new study leverages semantic entropy to assess the ...
