Pragmatic Encroachment and Epistemic Value
Does knowledge matter ? There are actually at least two questions behind this broad one. The first is whether the value of knowledge is independent from other epistemic values, such as the value of truth, or the value of having true beliefs.

متن کاملOn Distinguishing Epistemic 1 On Distinguishing Epistemic from Pragmatic Action
We present data and argument to show that in Tetris|a real-time, interactive video-game|certain cognitive and perceptual problems are more quickly, easily, and reliably solved by performing actions in the world than by performing computational actions in the head alone.

For instance, we don’t know whether it rained in Seattle yesterday. So, for us at least, there is an epistemic possibility where it rained in Seattle yesterday, and one where it did not. It’s tempting to give a very si...
