Why the Copenhagen Interpretation Doesn’t Work and Why It’s Popular Anyhow – Adam Becker (UC Berkeley)

Why the Copenhagen Interpretation Doesn’t Work and Why It’s Popular Anyhow – Adam Becker (UC Berkeley)
@ NYU Philosophy Dept. rm 101
Apr 3 @ 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
Conventional wisdom holds that since the advent of the first full theories of quantum mechanics in the mid-1920s, the Copenhagen interpretation has been the default interpretation of quantum mechanics, and has enjoyed the support of a majority of physicists ever since. This is not the case. While it is indeed true that a majority of physicists have long professed that they subscribe to the Copenhagen interpretation, the plain fact of the matter is that there[...]

“What Proofs are For” – Greg Restall (University of Melbourne)
@ NYU Philosophy Dept. rm 202
Apr 6 @ 12:00 pm – 2:00 pm
In this short talk, I present a new account of the nature of proof, with the aim of explaining how proof could actually play the role in reasoning that it does, and answering some long-standing puzzles about the nature of proof. Along the way, I’ll explain how Kreisel’s Squeezing argument helps us understand the connection between an informal notion of of validity and the notions formalised in our accounts of proofs and models, and the[...]

“Implicit Bias and the Unconscious” Ege Yumusak (Harvard) – SWIP-Analytic Graduate Student Essay Prize

“Implicit Bias and the Unconscious” Ege Yumusak (Harvard) – SWIP-Analytic Graduate Student Essay Prize
@ NYU Philosophy Dept. 6th flr lounge
Apr 12 @ 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
The metaphysics of implicit bias has been an area of heated debates involving philosophers and psychologists. Most theorists of implicit bias posit that associations underwrite implicit bias. Recent dissenters have argued that propositional attitudes undergird this pernicious attitude. However, the propositional attitude view of implicit bias does not satisfyingly explain its various manifestations that are underwritten by its diverse contents. In this paper my criticism targets: (1) legitimacy of ascriptions of unconscious mental content, and[...]
