Information fundamental from "summary" of Decoding the Universe by Charles Seife

In the quest to understand the nature of reality, physicists have stumbled upon a surprising idea: information may be more fundamental than matter or energy. This concept, known as "information fundamental," suggests that the universe is not made up of particles and forces, but rather bits and bytes of information. In this view, the physical world is like a computer simulation, with the laws of physics acting as the software that governs how information is processed and organized. To grasp the implications of this idea, imagine the universe as a vast network of interconnected nodes, each representing a piece of information. These nodes are constantly interacting and exchanging data, creating a complex web of relationships that gives rise to the world we experience. From the motion of planets to the behavior of subatomic particles, everything can be understood as the result of informatio...
