The Zeroth Principle of Thermodynamics states that two systems in equilibrium have the same temperature. It is simple and compelling. But it is wrong, says SFI Fractal Faculty member, Carlo Rovelli, and offers a suggestion, based on the notion of mutual information. Tune in to Rovelli’s talk on the “Death and Resurrection of the Zeroth Principle” today at 12:30 pm MT. #Livestreaming: youtube.com/@SFIScience

The notion of mutual information is a false construct that does not prove anything. Shannon information can only exist as the result of semantic information.
