Introduction

​ @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 What's left in Philosophy 00:06:14 Gap in physics and philosophy 00:12:51 Condensing ideas & transforming scales of ideas 00:18:39 Choosing Beliefs 00:20:46 Patreon Ask 00:24:44 Brains in vats? 00:29:58 Observation, knowledge, & simulations 00:35:33 Dreaming coherence 00:45:35 Philosophy of Mind 00:50:53 Zombies 00:53:06 Epistemology of the academe 01:04:58 Water off a Duck's Back 01:18:35 Ideal Claims 01:27:23 Math as Language 01:32:31 End of Inquiry 01:39:42 Realists, Antirealists & Synthesists 01:47:26 Science as Interrelation 01:54:10 Why Bother? 02:01:27 Laying Blame 02:10:00 The right knob to twist 02:22:12 Philosophers argue for everything 02:30:00 Closing thoughts Support the scientific revolution by joining our Patreon: https://bit.ly/3lcAasB Tell us what you think in the comments or on our Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub #philosophyofscience #philosophy #skepticism #truebeliefs #epistemology #knowledge Check our short-films channel, @DemystifySci: https://www.youtube.com/c/DemystifyingScience AND our material science investigations of atomics, @MaterialAtomics https://www.youtube.com/@MaterialAtomics Join our mailing list https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S PODCAST INFO: Anastasia completed her PhD studying bioelectricity at Columbia University.
