this is Shannon territory, where in some way maximum information is just maximum chaos, insofar as the 2nd law is concerned
then Laplace’s demon can be both impossible and determinism can be real
again, this is out of my depth, what i know is philosophy, but this is the right take imo. the demon is impossible, but determinism can be real in some sense (that certain events produce further events in a systematizable manner), but even if the universe is deterministic it is too complex for us to reliably predict it, simply because the complexity of our brains or algorithms can never match the complexity of the universe

we'd all kill ourselves if the world was fully computable/predictable anyway
