🔥Daniel Moses Alemoh Responds to Obidi's Article on "How can Information Become Physical Spacetime and Matter in Obidi's Theory of Entropicity (ToE)?"
This is the kind of article that doesn’t merely give you something to read—it gives you something to wrestle with.
Obidi’s Theory of Entropicity (ToE) takes one of the most unsettling questions in modern physics—what if information is more fundamental than matter and spacetime?—and pushes it to its most radical consequences. What begins as an abstract discussion of information geometry quickly turns into a journey through spacetime, gravity, matter, black holes, quantum entanglement, consciousness, and even the ultimate fate of the universe.
What I particularly enjoyed is the way the article repeatedly forces you to stop and reconsider assumptions that we normally take for granted. Is spacetime really fundamental? Is matter truly the basic substance of reality? Could gravity be an emergent phenomenon rather than a fundamental force? And if physical reality itself emerges from information, what exactly does that make us?
The Netflix and video-game analogies are especially effective. They take ideas that can otherwise become buried beneath mathematical language and give the reader an intuitive doorway into the conceptual architecture of Obidi's radical and audacious Theory of Entropicity (ToE).
But perhaps the most fascinating aspect is that the article does not simply present the theory—it anticipates objections and attempts to answer them. The questions of mathematical rigor, falsifiability, and the notorious “what is information without a physical medium?” objection are exactly where an information-first theory must prove its mettle.
Whether ToE ultimately survives those challenges is a question that physics—not enthusiasm—must decide. And that is precisely why I find the research so interesting. A genuinely ambitious theory should be willing to put its deepest assumptions on the table and invite them to be at once scrutinized and attacked for all it's worth.
This is speculative physics at its most provocative: bold enough to challenge the material-first picture of reality, yet structured enough to invite serious scrutiny and wholesale investigation.
If you enjoy physics that leaves you staring at the ceiling long after you have finished reading, this is worth the journey.
Read it with an open mind—but also with a critical one.
Either way, you probably won’t come away thinking about “reality” quite the same way again.
