Shannon Entropy Explained

This is a video from Up and Atom.

It is a good explanation of why for some messages more Entropy is better and for other messages, more Redundancy is better.

If the intention is “creativity” then more “entropy” is better.  If the intention is “predictability” then more “redundancy” is better.

I need to talk more about this.

For now, just check out the video.
