Revisiting the Second Law of Thermodynamics
This chapter explores the complexities of the second law of thermodynamics in relation to dynamical laws, proposing a novel approach through counterfactuals and constructors. It suggests a reformulation of the second law that applies across various scales and emphasizes the significance of understanding transformations in usability rather than solely through irreversible dynamics. Additionally, it discusses the potential of gravity as a mediator for quantum entanglement, highlighting the challenges and implications of quantizing gravity within quantum mechanics.
