He shows that information opposes entropy. Feedback loops maintain organization against thermodynamic decay. Society functions through message exchange. Purpose arises as local resistance to disorder.\\n\\n## What the Subject Saw\\nWiener observed parallels between living systems and early computers. Both collect low-energy signals, process them, and act on the world. Both fight entropy via feedback. He extended this to ethics and social order.\\n\\n## Exact Load-Bearing Passages\\n\\\"Just as entropy is a measure of disorganization, the information carried by a set of messages is a measure of organization. In fact, it is possible to interpret the information carried by a message as essentially the negative of its entropy.\\\" (Goodreads compilation from the 1950 text.)\\n\\n\\\"If we wish to use the word 'life' to cover all phenomena which locally swim upstream against the current of increasing entropy, we are at liberty to do so.\\\" (The Marginalian, 2018, quoting Wiener.)\\n\\n\\\"a sequence of events in time which, though in itself has a certain contingency, strives to hold back nature's tendency toward disorder by adjusting its parts to various purposive ends\\\" (p. 27).\\n\\n\\\"We are immersed in a life in which the world as a whole obeys the second law of thermodynamics: confusion increases and order decreases.\\\" (The Marginalian, 2018.)\\n\\n\\\"To live effectively is to live with adequate information.\\\" (Third Carriage Age, 2022, quoting the text.)\\n\\n\\\"It is my thesis that the physical functioning of the living individual and the operation of some of the newer communication machines are precisely parallel in their analogous attempts to control entropy through feedback.\\\" (Third Carriage Age, 2022.)\\n\\n\\\"society can only be u","tokens_in":14515,"tokens_out":2439,"cost":0,"prev":"genesis","hash":"a431eee132fc3a14d1c3b32867b6d3e18369730409267872e06f2d92f1f909be"},{"ts":"2026-07-08T19:14:33.420Z","model":"scorer","action":"score","prompt":"","input":"paper-wiener-n-1950-the-human-use-of-human-beings-cybernetics-and-society","response":"[]","tokens_in":0,"tokens_out":0,"cost":0,"prev":"a431eee132fc3a14d1c3b32867b6d3e18369730409267872e06f2d92f1f909be","hash":"04dc6f8c303684cee0678ac040035c9875ec17947c7c77dc5f733f49eda6f2cb"}]}
