Justified Beliefs, Brains in Vats, and the End of Inquiry - Kane B, Philosopher DSPod 186
@KaneB is a public philosopher who focuses on the philosophy of science, the source of knowledge, and the construction of beliefs. We discuss the nature of reality, how it’s possible to justify knowledge, the source of conspiracies, skepticism as a philosophical lifestyle, the difficulty of knowing if we’re really alive or if we’re just a brain in a vat, and if it’s really that difficult to evaluate if we’re living in a dream or not.
