| Description | There are concepts that kept busy philosophers for a long time, philosophers who determined conditions necessary for ascribing certain concept to agent - kind of proper instructions. Laymen don't need to care about them - after all, these are concepts that are used in everyday social interactions (intentional action, knowledge, happiness). The question is how they use them? Do they adhere to these instructions? What if there is another factor which philosophers didn't foreseen and which substantially affects usage of these concepts? In the presentation which lies between cognitive science and philosophy, I will try to explain what this mysterious factor is and submit reasons why we - philosophers - should be interested in it. |
