Philosophy & What Matters. Ep. 19: The Philosophy of Probability with Branden Fitelson (NEU)

"Philosophy & What Matters" deals with questions that matter to us from a philosophical point of view. Bertrand Russell once said that “Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.” Claims like “There’s a 30% chance of rain”, “Trump will likely win this election”, and “There’s a million to one odds that you’ll win the lottery” all carry probability information. But what do they really mean? Are probabilities something out there in the world? Or do they only measure our degree of confidence that some event will happen? Joining us to discuss the philosophy of probability and why it matters, we have Branden Fitelson, Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at Northeastern University.
