That's just not true. Whether the message is from an "intelligent" source or not, it can still contain information. When you make an observation of a random process, you decrease your uncertainty about its state, or in other words, you lower its entropy. In the process, information has been communicated to you.
- galaxyLogic 5y agoAre you saying that the act of observation decreases entropy of the observed system? Or are you saying that entropy is fully in the "eye of the beholder"? If I observe something and you observe the same thing but longer, you reduce the entropy further (for yourself) than I do?
