The insects that crashed, or contained logic errors, or that cornered themselves, had high entropy. The "dumb kid's" insect had low entropy.

Think about it.



Yeah I understand how it was meant. But it's completely useless to use a mathematical/physical term with a very well defined meaning which does not apply in that context. It would have been better to use "complexity" instead. I feel "entropy" was only used for link bait reasons.
