AR-SA">Dear
FISers,<br>
Going through hard times should not stop us from exchanging ideas.<br>
My two cents: <br>
When trying to define information we should keep in mind that information exists to carry meanings and is used for meaning management. If there is no need for meanings, information does not have to exist.<br>
Assuming that we accept meaning as the core of information, we can reach some simple definitions like:<i> information is any energy variation that conveys meaning or participates to meaning generation.</i> (The former is about meaningful information, the latter
includes meaningless Information). This definition can be used for humans, animals and artificial agents. But it needs to explicit what is a meaning and what is meaning generation.
<br>
As we have already talked about, this has been done by proposing a model for meaning generation (the MGS) which allows to:<br>
- Define a meaning, a meaningful information, and tell what a meaning is for.<br>
- Relate meaning to agency and to constraint satisfaction.<br>
- Differentiate artificial agents from organic ones.<br>
- Define agency and autonomy.<br>
- Identify some limits of today AI .<br>
- Introduce evolutionary scenarios for cognition, intentionality and self-consciousness.<br>
- Highlight some possible sources of human mental health problems.<br>
This is more than we need to consider that defining information as a meaning carrier (with a definition of meaning) can be a valid option.

Let’s again recall that the proposed approach is an evolutionary one. It does not take information as managed by humans as a starting point. This is deliberate, in order to avoid having to consider human consciousness and free will in our starting point. These
human performances are complex and not clearly understood by science and philosophy. Taking them into account, even implicitly, would make our starting point unnecessarily complex. The choice made here is to start with a case as simple as possible (meaning
generation in animals) and look at human performances as the result of an evolutionary approach.

<div dir="ltr">Carissimo Joseph,
<div>Ti ringrazio di cuore per il Tuo affettuoso augurio di buona salute alla mia famiglia. Grazie a Dio e anche agli uomini di buona </div>
<div>capacita e volontà stiamo bene.</div>
<div>Mi permetto di scriverTi che, non solo secondo me, ma anche per il giudizio-pensiero di altri studiosi, molto più autorevoli del</div>
<div>sottoscritto:</div>
<div>* l'equilibrio (che sarebbe bene o meglio cambiare con armonia, anche del dis-accordo) può paragonarsi ad una tautologia</div>
<div>che al pari dell'ideologia è una falsa co-scienza; difatti l'equilibrio entropico è mortale, il dis-equilibrio neg-enropico è vitale;</div>
<div>* per quanto riguarda il rapporto tra energia e informazione, bisogna dire che l'energia libera non è altro che una forma di in-</div>
<div>formazione (neg-entropica), mentre l'energia degradata (non più trasformabile in lavoro utile o meccanico) non è altro che</div>
<div>una forma di dis-in-formazione (entropica);</div>
<div>* è necessario ricordare che v'ha un tempo per essere generalisti e un tempo per essere specialisti: quando si dà luogo ad </div>
<div>un'iniziativa pregevole, preziosa e profetica come la FIS, nata per merito di Pedro, prima bisogna. essere generalisti e poi </div>
<div>specialisti, sapendo che il prima serve il poi.</div>
<div>Carissimo Joseph, leggo sempre con molta attenzione i Tuoi autorevoli interventi-messaggi e sono sempre più convinto che solo</div>
<div>il rilancio della filosofia possa costituire la base onto-metodo-logica della definizione e della narrazione-processo della LEGGE </div>
<div>DELL'INFORMAZIONE, senza trascurare la scienza mediatrice dell'economia.</div>
<div>DateVi e diamoci da fare, perché molta strada ancora bisogna percorrere e sperimentare.</div>
<div>Un abbraccio affettuoso a Te ed ai Tuoi cari, estensibile a Tutti, con l'amore della fede, della perseveranza e del coraggio.</div>
<div>Grazie, grazie, grazie.</div>
<div>Francesco.</div>

the basic principle of any scientific discourse - the IF-THEN principle - according to which each hypothetical assumption is followed by a suggestion what stems from it, where, and how these expectations could be discerned and observed. If I remember right,
Terence and Gordana on several previous occasions have addressed this issue, but their call has remained unanswered.</span></font><font color="black"><span lang="EN-US" style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

information look like, how it is represented, what is its real form? The proposed definition of information must be followed by a suggestion of assets that make it (the information) visible, tangible, palpable.

global Artificial Intelligence race. In both, Artificial Neural Networks (which are data processing number crunching devices) are supposed to emulate human brain biological neurons (which are pure information processing devices). Both fail to fulfill their
promises, but do not understand for what reason and why. The current FIS discussion certainly will not help them.</span></font><font color="black"><span lang="EN-US" style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
