| adam_text | Traditional. phiLosophicaL discussions of knowledge have fixated on the epistemic status of fuLL betiefs. Sarah Moss argues that in addition to fuLL betiefs, credences can have the speciaL epistemic status of constituting knowtedge. For instance, your .3 credence that it is raining can be knowtedge, in just the same way that the futt betief that it is raining can be knowtedge. In addition to defending probabitistic knowtedge. Moss defends revisionary ctaims in the phitosophy of mind and Language—námety, that you can betieve and assert probabitistic contents. These ctaims have significant consequences for standing debates about epistemic modats, futt betief and credence, peer disagreement, pragmatic encroachment, and transformative experience. Accepting probabitistic knowtedge atso hetps exptain why statisticat evidence is insufficient for tegat proof and why raciat profiting viotates epistemic norms. Probabilistic Knowledge not onty hetps us understand the nature of our own mentát states, but atso hetps us better understand the nature of our responsibitities to each other.
