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. 00:00:00 Go! 00:00:17 Who is Kane Baker? 00:01:58
