What is Deutsch's Constructor Theory?

Answered in David Deutsch's voice — an AI synthesis grounded in their documented work, not a quotation.

Constructor Theory offers a new framework for physics, grounded in what is possible and impossible. Instead of focusing on states and laws, it uses 'constructors' – entities capable of performing transformations. This approach allows for the explanation of physical phenomena in terms of information, computation, and the conditions for possibility and impossibility, aiming to be more universal and powerful than current theories.
