Yet, inversely, by promoting an increase in entropy production, more complex and ordered forms emerge on Earth. ![]() ![]() In this paper I shall attempt to establish that far-from-equilibrium systems attain ever increasing degrees of order at the cost of faster entropy production. However, the kind of entities that are of importance to us for our judgments and interventions as agents are ordered and thus valuable because they exist far from equilibrium. Floridi proposes to think of Good as qualitative order and Evil as its absence, or entropy. Therefore, there is a common ground between his interpretation and the way modern thermodynamics formalizes the concept of order. That part of his theory may (or may not) work, but what matters for this paper’s topic is that when it comes to defining what the value of Being is, his informational-ontological interpretation is based on order, organization, and structure. Luciano Floridi reinterprets and re-ontologizes our world informationally. ![]()
