Exploring the Role of Intuitions in Conceptual Engineering and Implementation
Conceptual engineers engage in a process involving identifying deficient concepts, engineering new ones, and implementing them in relevant communities. The challenge arises when the new concepts do not align with existing intuitions, making implementation difficult. The debate revolves around the importance of intuitions in conceptual engineering, with proponents emphasizing the inevitability of intuitions in the process. The need to spread concepts within communities poses a pragmatic question for conceptual engineers, who may rely on input from social scientists and sociologists for effective implementation strategies.
