How come a combination of atoms can lead to information being stored in a computer or a brain?
In: Physics
Information storage in your brain is almost completely the opposite of information storage in a computer. This shows that “information” isn’t a thing at an atomic scale. There is charge, and spin, and magnetic dipole moment, and ion concentration, but not information.
It represent information in charge, the way a USB thumb drive does, you need an external structure and specification that defines the “meaning” (0 or 1) of each structure element.
