Shannon took it even one step further: He walked away from the field of information theory almost entirely and pursued other lines of research and inquiry.

The fundamental law of information theory show definitively that computer models by themselves are incapable of increasing our knowledge about physical reality beyond that already known to those who programmed the model.

Claude Shannon, a brilliant eccentric who could often be found riding his unicycle and juggling through the halls of Bell Labs, was the father of information theory itself, a revolutionary new way of looking at the world.

You can't extract this information (as qst mentioned — a very broad term), and you can study Shannon and others to see how complex the very thought of information theory itself is.

Years ago Wilbur Schramm predicted: «Of all the potential contributions of information theory to mass communication, perhaps the most promising is the study of communication networks.

During an interview in 1987, I asked him what he meant by that — in particular, I wondered if what he had in mind was some sort of numerical measure of meaning, similar to the math of information theory (which quantifies information in bits, typically represented by 0 and 1).

All the heroes of information theory and media studies are here, including Alan Turing, Claude Shannon, Samuel Morse and Ada Byron.

In fact, most uncertainties in the alarmist pseudo-science are internal contradictions and consequences of its shoddy practices: cherry picking data, making conclusions based on statistically insignificant observations, declaring trends based on variations that are within error margins, relying on computer models that contradict principles of the information theory, forging forecasts for unreasonably long time periods, etc..

A proper understanding of information theory and decision theory indicates that there is always an optimum policy in the light of available information, and this optimum is formally obtained via the use of risk weighting, which in turn is based on something that is structurally the same as a probability distribution function and is conceptually closely related.
