A physicist studying mutations of the SARS-CoV-2 virus claims to have found evidence for a new law of physics termed the “second law of Infodynamics”, and that it could indicate we are living in a simulated universe. On top of that, he suggests the study appears to imply that the theory of evolution is incorrect, with mutations not being entirely random.
There’s a lot to unpack here. The first thing to say is that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and so far – as Dr Melvin Vopson explains in his work – we do not have that at all. In fact, we aren’t even close. However, the ideas and results presented are intriguing and interesting, even if further study or scrutiny proves them incorrect.
In his latest study, Vopson looked at mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 virus from an information entropy (a term distinct from usual entropy) perspective.
