Essay: Morality as a Physical Law of Complex Systems
The essay argues that morality is not a social construct but an objective emergent law of stability in complex systems. Through the lenses of thermodynamics, game theory, quantum analogies, general relativity, and cybernetics, it demonstrates that ethical norms are extensions of fundamental physical principles, and that conscience is a feedback interface essential for the long‑term existence of complex agents.
