 The first domain that could benefit from philosophy of information is of course philosophy itself. The concept of information potentially has an impact on almost all philosophical main disciplines, ranging from logic, theory of knowledge, to ontology and even ethics and esthetics (see introduction above). Philosophy of science and philosophy of information, with their interest in the problem of induction and theory formation, probably both could benefit from closer cooperation (see  4.1 Popper: Information as degree of falsifiability).  The concept of information plays an important role in the history of philosophy that is not completely understood (see  2. History of the term and the concept of information).
